Anosov groups that are indiscrete in rank one

Group Theory 2023-11-08 v2

Abstract

We exhibit Anosov subgroups of SLd(R)\mathsf{SL}_d(\mathbb{R}) that do not embed discretely in any rank-11 simple Lie group of noncompact type, or indeed, in any finite product of such Lie groups. These subgroups are isomorphic to free products ΓΔ\Gamma * \Delta, where Γ\Gamma is a uniform lattice in F4(20)\mathsf{F}_4^{(-20)} and Δ\Delta is a uniform lattice in Sp(m,1)\mathsf{Sp}(m,1), m51m \geq 51.
