Abstract
Let be a connected center-free simple real algebraic group of rank one and be a Zariski dense torsion-free convex cocompact subgroup. We prove that the frame flow on , i.e., the right translation action of a one-parameter subgroup of semisimple elements, is exponentially mixing with respect to the Bowen-Margulis-Sullivan measure. The key step is proving suitable generalizations of the local non-integrability condition and the non-concentration property which are essential for Dolgopyat's method. This generalizes the work of Sarkar-Winter for and also strengthens the mixing result of Winter in the convex cocompact case.
