Spaces of homomorphisms and commuting orthogonal matrices.
In this work we study the space of group homomorphisms Hom (π,G) for special choices of π and G. In the first part of this thesis, we enumerate and describe the path components for the spaces of ordered commuting k-tuples of orthogonal and special orthogonal matrices respectively. This correspond...
