“…The converse of this is not true in general; i.e., a closed Haken manifold W may not have a positive dimensional SL 2 (C)-or PSL 2 (C)-character variety. Examples of such Haken manifolds have been described by K. Motegi in [33], obtained by gluing two torus knot exteriors according to a well-chosen gluing homeomorphism of their boundaries. Clearly none of Motegi's examples is hyperbolic.…”

“…The fundamental group of M 3 can be represented by π 1 (M 3 ). The nature of π 1 (M 3 ) is the type of SL(2, C), which is a homeomorphism of π 1 (M 3 ) to SL(2, C) [6]. It is important to note that the space of representation of fundamental group π 1 (M 3 ) in the SL(2, C) structure is a complex algebraic set [6].…”

“…The construction of deformations of a representation used in this section is called a bending construction or simply a bending. See [11,17] as a reference. Here we compute X irr (Σ(K, K)) for the trefoil knot and the figure-eight knot K by using a presentation of a twist knot.…”
