Student Dynamics Seminar

Learning Seminar on Benoist's work - Day 2 (Geodesic Flow is Anosov)
Monday, February 18, 2019
3:00-4:00 PM
3866 East Hall Map
We will continue our discussion of the main theorem in Convex Divisible I (Y. Benoist). The focus will be on the proof that strictly convex divisible Hilbert geometries have Anosov geodesic flow. Using some other facts from dynamics, we will observe that this implies C^1 (in fact, slightly more than C^1) regularity of the boundary. This completes the proof of the main theorem. Time permitting, I will explain how the results discussed so far give us some rigidity results in Hilbert geometry.
