Litt's potential integral density question for SLr\mathrm{SL}_r character varieties of curves

Theorem 1.1: for every smooth connected complex curve XX, rank rr and quasi-unipotent conjugacy classes at the punctures (nonsemisimple allowed), there is a finite extension LL of the field of eigenvalues with Mr(X)(OL)∩Y(C)M_r(X)(\mathcal O_L)\cap Y(\mathbb C) Zariski dense in every component of the relative locus YY; an explicit LL is given. The same holds when only characteristic polynomials are fixed, and for the whole character variety with base field Q\mathbb Q. This settles the determinant-one curve case of Litt's question and the SLr\mathrm{SL}_r curve case of the Coccia-Litt conjecture for quasi-unipotent data; higher-dimensional varieties are not treated.
