Deforming reducible representations of surface and 2-orbifold groups

For a compact 2-orbifold with negative Euler characteristic O2, the variety of characters of π1(O2) in SLn(R) is a non-singular manifold at C-irreducible representations. In this paper we prove that when a C-irreducible representation of π1(O2) in SLn(R) is viewed in SLn+1(R), then the variety of ch...
