Deformations of Pseudorepresentations

open access: yesJournal of Number Theory, 2001
If \(\rho: G\rightarrow {\text{GL}}(2,B)\) is a group homomorphism (\(B\) a commutative ring with identity), one can encode the semisimple type of \(\rho\) by memorizing the upper left and lower right entries of the matrices \(\rho(g),\;g\in G.\) This gives two maps \(A,D : G\rightarrow B\) which satisfy certain rules coming from matrix multiplication.
