Abstract: For any branched double covering of compact Riemann surfaces, we consider the associated character varieties that are unitary in the global sense, which we call extGLntimes!<!sigma!>!-character varieties. We restrict the monodromies around the ramification points to generic semi-simple conjugacy classes contained in extGLnsigma, and compute the E-polynomials of these character varieties using the character table of extGLn(q)times!<!sigma!>!. The result is expressed as the inner product of certain symmetric functions associated to the wreath products (mathbbZ/2mathbbZ)NtimesmathfrakSN. We are then led to a conjectural formula for the mixed Hodge polynomial, which involves (modified) Macdonald polynomials and wreath Macdonald polynomials.
