Let M be a nontrivial compression body without toroidal boundary components. We study the dynamics of the group of outer automorphisms of the fundamental group of M on the PSL(2,C)-character variety of M.
Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group, $G_\mathbb{C}$ be a classical complex group and $G_\mathbb{R}$ a real form of $G_\mathbb{C}$. We propose a definition of the $G_\mathbb{R}$-character variety of $\Gamma$ as a subset…
The Hirzebruch $td_y(X)$ class of a complex manifold X is a formal combination of Chern characters of the sheaves of differential forms multiplied by the Todd class. The related $\chi_y$-genus admits a generalization for singular complex…
We investigate irreducible components of the fixed point sets of $ SL(2,\mathbb{C}) $-character variety of the genus two surface group under orientation preserving actions of the finite groups of the $ Mod(\Sigma_{2}) $. We work in the $…
Take a compact Sasakian threefold $M$ and consider the associated irreducible $\text{SL}(r,{\mathbb C})$-character variety ${\mathcal R} := \text{Hom}(\pi_1(M, x_0), \text{SL}(r, {\mathbb C}))^{ir}/ \text{SL}(r, {\mathbb C})$ of $M$, where…
Let $L$ be a compact oriented $3$-manifold and $\rho\colon\pi_1(L)\to \mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{C})$ a representation. Evaluating the Cheeger-Chern-Simons class $\widehat{c}_{\rho,k}\in H^{2k-1}(L;\mathbb{C}/\mathbb{Z})$ of $\rho$ at $\nu\in…
For an endomorphism $s:V\rightarrow V$ of a finite dimensional complex vector space and an action of a torus $T$ on the full flag variety $\text{GL}_n({\mathbb C})/B$, we give a description of its fixed point set when $s$ is semisimple or…
We discuss some categorical aspects of the objects that appear in the construction of the Monster and other sporadic simple groups. We define the basic representation of the categorical torus $\mathcal T$ classified by an even symmetric…
The traceless $SU(2)$ character variety $R(S^2,\{a_i,b_i\}_{i=1}^n)$ of a $2n$-punctured 2-sphere is the symplectic reduction of a Hamiltonian $n$-torus action on the $SU(2)$ character variety of a closed surface of genus $n$. It is…
We study properties of irreducible and completely reducible representations of finitely generated groups Gamma into reductive algebraic groups G in in the context of the geometric invariant theory of the G-action on Hom(Gamma,G) by…
This is a continuation of arXiv: 2408.03012. We answer affirmatively Question 5.10 posed in the previous article. More precisely, let $(X, \omega)$ be a conical symplectic variety of dimension $2n$ with $wt(\omega) = 2$, which has a…
Consider an equidimensional faithful conical action of an algebraic torus $T$ on an affine normal conical variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Then there exists a finite normal subgroup $N$ of $T$ such that…
Let $\Gamma$ be the fundamental group of a complete hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ with toric cusps. We define the $\omega$-Borel invariant $\beta_n^\omega(\rho_\omega)$ associated to a representation $\rho_\omega: \Gamma \rightarrow…
We develop a flexible technique to bound the characters of symmetric groups, via the Naruse hook length formula, the Larsen--Shalev character bounds, and appropriate diagram slicings. It allows us to prove a uniform exponential character…
We describe the geometry of the character variety of representations of the fundamental group of the complement of a Hopf link with $n$ twists, namely $\Gamma_{n}=\langle x,y \,| \, [x^n,y]=1 \rangle$ into the group $\mathrm{SU}(r)$. For…
We extend our previous work arXiv:1012.5721 [hep-th] on the non-compact N=2 SCFT_2 defined as the supersymmetric SL(2,R)/U(1)-gauged WZW model. Starting from path-integral calculations of torus partition functions of both the axial-type…
We give a characterization of locally standard, $\mathbb{Z}$-equivariantly formal manifolds in general position. In particular, we show that for dimension $2n$ at least $10$, to every such manifold with labeled GKM graph $\Gamma$ there is…
We show that the (4,5)-torus knot $T_{4,5}$ admits exactly one ghost character. We then show that this ghost character provides the following two important results. (1) It is known that for any knot $K$ every (meridionally) trace-free…
In this note we study linear systems on complete toric varieties $X$ with an invariant point, whose orbit under the action of the automorphism group of $X$ contains the dense torus $T$ of $X$. We give a characterization of such varieties in…
The $SL_2(\mathbb{C})$ character variety $X(M)$ has emerged as an important tool in studying the topology of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Chinburg-Reid-Stover constructed arithmetic invariants stemming from a canonical Azumaya algebra over the…
