On the rings of Fricke characters of free abelian groups

Abstract

In this paper, we study the structure of the rings of Fricke characters of free abelian groups. More precisely, we consider a descending filtration of ideals in the ring, and give a basis of its graded quotients. Then by using this fact, we show that the ring of Fricke characters of a free aberian group is an integral domain.
