In this talk I will give some relations between spaces of homomorphisms when the target group G is a real linear algebraic group, through homotopy stable decompositions of simplicial spaces. To obtain a simplicial space Hom(L,G) out of spaces of...

A classical approach to understanding spaces of homomorphisms is to describe its connected components. We mainly focus in the spaces Hom(N_{n,q},SU(2)), where N_{n,q} denotes the free q-nilpotent group on n-generators. We show that the connected...
