This is a partial exposition of other papers of the author [see, e.g., Lond. Math. Soc. Lect. Note Ser. 200, 255-288 (1994; Zbl 0843.14011)], which study the space of representations of a (finitely generated) group \(\Gamma\) in \(\text{SL}_2\) and \(\text{GL}_2\) in an attempt of its application in geometry. The purpose of the present paper is to introduce the character variety \(\text{Ch}(\Gamma,\text{SL}_2)\) in order to parametrize conjugacy classes of representations of \(\Gamma\) in \(\text{SL}_2\) in a functorial way. The principal \(\text{PGL}_2\)-bundle structures on \(\Hom^*(\Gamma,\text{SL}_2)\) over \(\text{Ch}^*(\Gamma,\text{SL}_2)\) with respect to the étale and to the classical topology are formulated. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0901.00037].
