Two hyperbolic 3-manifolds \(M\) and \(N\) are said to be commensurable if they have a common finite sheeted covering. Denote by \(Y(M)\) the \(\text{PSL} (2,C)\)-character variety of \(M\) and \(Y_0(M)\) a component of \(Y (M)\) containing the character of a faithful discrete representation of \(\pi_1 (M)\). The main results of this paper concern how \(Y_0(M)\) be can used to detect incommensurability of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. For example, the following theorems were proved. Theorem 1 1. Suppose that \(M_1\) and \(M_2\) are 1-cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds that cover a common orbifold with a flexible cusp. Then \(Y_0(M_1)\) is birational to \(Y_0(M_2)\). Theorem 1.2. Suppose that \(M\) is a non-arithmetic 1-cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold for which the minimal element in the commensurability class has a flexible cusp. Then \(Y_0(M)\) is an invariant of the commensurability class of \(M\). Some other theorems are also proved under the above mentioned aspect.
