Rigidity of convex divisible domains in flag manifolds

Differential Geometry 2019-03-13 v1 Geometric Topology

Abstract

In contrast to the many examples of convex divisible domains in real projective space, we prove that up to projective isomorphism there is only one convex divisible domain in the Grassmannian of pp-planes in R2p\mathbb{R}^{2p} when p>1p > 1. Moreover, this convex divisible domain is a model of the symmetric space associated to the simple Lie group SO(p,p)(p, p).
