Abstract

The present paper studies the structure of characteristic varieties of fundamental groups of graph manifolds. As a consequence, a simple proof solving a question posed by Papadima on the characterization of algebraic links that have quasi-projective fundamental groups is provided. The type of quasi-projective obstructions used here are in the spirit of Papadima’s original work.
