A character variety is a moduli space of representations of a finitely generated group $\Gamma$ into a linear algebraic groups $G$. Character varieties have been studied in a various viewpoints. In particular, if $\Gamma$ is a fundamental group of a surface, then its character varieties are closely related to geometric structures on the surface. The aim of this workshop is to stimulate communication between mathematicians working on geometric structures, representations of surface groups, and character varieties.
