Abstract
We study the set of normalized multi-lengths for representations of closed surface groups and free groups into whose projections to are all convex cocompact. These multi-lengths define a convex cone in , called the limit cone. When , we show the coexistence of different regimes: for some representations the limit cone has only a finite number of sides, which we can force to grow like the genus (or free rank); for other representations, extremal rays are dense in the boundary of the limit cone. We also give examples where the limit cone varies discontinuously with the representation.
