Abstract
Given an algebraic reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and a finitely generated group, we provide a stratification of the -character variety of in terms of conjugacy classes of parabolic subgroups of . Each stratum has the structure of a pseudo-quotient, which is a relaxed GIT notion capturing the topology of the quotient and, therefore, behaving well for motivic computations of invariants of the character varieties. These stratifications are constructed by analyzing the root datum of to encode parabolic classes. Finally, detailed and explicit motivic formulae are provided for cases with Dynkin diagram of types , , and .
