Student Dynamics Seminar

Anosov representations have been introduced by Labourie and generalize convex cocompact representations of word hyperbolic groups into rank one Lie groups. In this talk, we will introduce a specific class of Anosov representations called Projective Anosov representations and give their main properties. It follows by Benoist's work that discrete subgroups of the (real) projective linear group which divide strictly convex domains of the associated real projective space give rise to such representations. We will also explain why this class of examples are Projective Anosov. Speaker(s): Kostas Tsouvalas (University of Michigan)
