On Hodge polynomials of Singular Character Varieties

Carlos Florentino, Azizeh Nozad, Jaime Silva +1

Let ${\mathcal{X}}_{\Gamma }G:=\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma ,G)//G$ be the $G$-character variety of $\Gamma$, where $G$ is a complex reductive group and $\Gamma$ a finitely presented group. We introduce new techni…
