| Research Abstract |
We studied the SL(2,C)-character variety of once punctured torus. In particular, we investigate the relation between the Q-condition due to Bowditch, the discreteness of the corresponding representation, the complexity of the dynamics of the mapping class group action on the character variety. We published a joint paper with Yohei Komori on the global structure of the discreteness loci of the linear slices of the character variety. We carried our a computer experiments on primitive stableness, which was introduced recently by Minsky and measures the complexity of the dynamics of the mapping class group action, and compared our results with Q-condition.
