Abstract

Let GG be a real semisimple Lie group with finite centre and without compact factors, Q<GQ<G a parabolic subgroup and XX a homogeneous space of GG admitting an equivariant projection on the flag variety G/QG/Q with fibres given by copies of lattice quotients of a semisimple factor of QQ. Given a probability measure μ\mu, Zariski-dense in a copy of H=SL2(R)H=\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R}) in GG, we give a description of μ\mu-stationary probability measures on XX and prove corresponding equidistribution results. Contrary to the results of Benoist-Quint corresponding to the case G=QG=Q, the type of stationary measures that μ\mu admits depends strongly on the position of HH relative to QQ. We describe possible cases and treat all but one of them, among others using ideas from the works of Eskin-Mirzakhani and Eskin-Lindenstrauss.
