Using the work of Bonahon-Dreyer and Fock-Goncharov, one can construct a real-analytic parameterization for the PSL(n,R) Hitchin component of a surface S, that is explicitly analogous to the Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates on the Teichmuller…

We show that the critical exponent of a representation in the Hitchin component of $PSL(d,\mathbb{R})$ is bounded above, the least upper bound being attained only in the Fuchsian locus. This provides a rigid inequality for the area of a…

Let $(S,g_0)$ be a hyperbolic surface, $\rho$ be a Hitchin representation for $PSL(n,\mathbb R)$, and $f$ be the unique $\rho$-equivariant harmonic map from $(\widetilde S, \widetilde g_0)$ to the corresponding symmetric space. We show its…

The Hitchin component of the character variety of representations of a surface group $\pi_1(S)$ into $\mathrm{PSL}_d(\mathbb{R})$ for some $d \geq 3$ can be equipped with a pressure metric whose restriction to the Fuchsian locus equals the…

The main result is an explicit expression for the Pressure Metric on the Hitchin component of surface group representations into PSL(n,R) along the Fuchsian locus. The expression is in terms of a parametrization of the tangent space by…

Let $S$ be a closed oriented surface of genus at least $2$, and denote by $\mathcal{T}(S)$ its Teichm{\"u}ller space. For any isotopy class of closed curves $\gamma$, we compute the first three derivatives of the length function…

In the algebra of complex quaternions $\mathbb{H(C)}$ we consider for the first time left- and right-$\psi$-hyperholomorphic functions. We justify the transition in left- and right-$\psi$-hyperholomorphic functions to a simpler basis i.e.…

The non-commutative harmonic oscillator (NCHO) was introduced as a specific Hamiltonian operator on $L^2(\mathbb{R})\otimes\mathbb{C}^2$ by Parmeggiani and Wakayama. Then it was proved by Ochiai and Wakayama that the eigenvalue problem for…

Given a convex representation $\rho:\Gamma\to\textrm{PGL}(d,\mathbb{R})$ of a convex co-compact group $\Gamma$ of $\mathbb{H}^k$ we find upper bounds for the quantity $\alpha h_\rho,$ where $h_\rho$ is the entropy of $\rho$ and $\alpha$ is…

We are given a finite group $H$, an automorphism $\tau$ of $H$ of order $r$, a Galois extension $L/K$ of fields of characteristic zero with cyclic Galois group $\langle\sigma\rangle$ of order $r$, and an absolutely irreducible…

Within Bishop-style constructive mathematics we study the classical McShane-Whitney theorem on the extendability of real-valued Lipschitz functions defined on a subset of a metric space. Using a formulation similar to the formulation of…

The space of Hitchin representations of the fundamental group of a closed surface $S$ into $\text{SL}_n\mathbb{R}$ embeds naturally in the space of projective oriented geodesic currents on $S$. We find that currents in the boundary have…

The Hitchin component is a connected component of the character variety of reductive group homomorphisms from the fundamental group of a closed surface S of genus greater than 1 to the Lie group PSL_m(R). The Teichmuller space of S…

Let $\Sigma$ be a closed surface of genus least two and $\rho \colon \pi_1(\Sigma) \to G$ a Hitchin representation into $G=\text{PSL}(n,\mathbb{R})$, $\text{PSp}(2n,\mathbb{R})$, $\text{PSO}(n,n+1)$ or $\text{G}_2$. We consider the energy…

The Schur-Horn theorem is a well-known result that characterizes the relationship between the diagonal elements and eigenvalues of a symmetric (Hermitian) matrix. In this paper, we extend this theorem by exploring the eigenvalue…

For a closed surface S, the Hitchin component Hit_n(S) is a preferred component of the character variety consisting of group homomorphisms from the fundamental group pi_1(S) to the Lie group PSL_n(R). We construct a parametrization of the…

In previous paper I construct an approximative solution of the power series expansion in closed forms of Grand Confluent Hypergeometric (GCH) function only up to one term of A_n's [4]. And I obtain normalized constant and orthogonal…

For a given pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism $\varphi$ of a closed surface $S$, the action of $\varphi$ on the Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal T(S)$ preserves the Weil-Petersson symplectic form. We give explicit formulae for two invariant…

A consequence of Rapinchuk et al. is that for $S$ a closed surface of genus $g\geq 2$, the set of Hitchin representations of $\pi_1(S)$ with image in $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{Q})$ is dense in the Hitchin component. We give a dynamical proof…
