Thurston, Neumann and Zagier initiated a strategy (in the case of PGL(2,C)) consisting in: triangulate the manifold, assign shapes to each pieces and then try to glue back. This leads to the \"gluing equations\" and the Neumann-Zagier symplectic space. Building on the works of Dimofte-Gabella-Goncharov and Bergeron-Falbel-Guilloux, we complete the picture in the case of PGL(n,C). We recover a situation very similar to the case of PGL(2,C). This allows for example to obtain a combinatorial proof of a local rigidity results for such representations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-10-10T18:29:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "representations", "restriction", "neumann-zagier symplectic space", "local rigidity results", "fundamental group" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 24, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1310.2907G" } } }
