\(SL_n\)-character varieties as spaces of graphs (English)
0 references
The Bullock-Przytycki-Sikora theorem shows that the Kauffman bracket skein module of a 3-manifold \(M\) is a deformation of the \(SL_2\)-character variety of \(\pi_1(M)\). This paper provides a generalization of this result to \(SL_n\)-character varieties.
