A three-dimensional quasi-Fuchsian Lorentzian manifold $M$ is a globally hyperbolic spacetime diffeomorphic to $\Sigma\times (-1,1)$ for a closed orientable surface $\Sigma$ of genus $\geq 2$. It is the quotient $M=\Gamma\backslash…
Let $\Gamma\subset \mathsf{PGL}(d,\mathbb{R})$ be an irreducible projective Anosov subgroup and let $\Lambda^1(\Gamma)$ be its projective limit set. Viewing $\Lambda^1(\Gamma)$ as an analogue of a self-affine set, we investigate the…
We define a new family of discrete representations of relatively hyperbolic groups which unifies many existing definitions and examples of geometrically finite behavior in higher rank. The definition includes the relative Anosov…
Let $S$ be a compact, orientable surface of hyperbolic type. Let $(k_+,k_-)$ be a pair of negative numbers and let $(g_+, g_-)$ be a pair of marked metrics over $S$ of constant curvature equal to $k_+$ and $k_-$ respectively. Using a…
Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary word hyperbolic group and $d_{a}, a>1,$ a visual metric on its Gromov boundary $\partial_{\infty}\Gamma$. For an $1$-Anosov representation $\rho:\Gamma \rightarrow \mathsf{GL}_{d}(\mathbb{K})$, where…
We provide characterizations of Anosov representations of word hyperbolic groups into real semisimple Lie groups in terms of the existence of equivariant limit maps on the Gromov boundary, the Cartan property and the uniform gap summation…

Let $\rho: \Gamma \to G$ be an Anosov representation, with $\Gamma$ a word hyperbolic group and $G$ a semisimple Lie group. Previous works (Guichard--Wienhard, Kapovich--Leeb--Porti, and Carvajales--Stecker) constructed an open domain of…
We prove that divergent, extended geometrically finite (in the sense of Weisman arXiv:2205.07183) representations can be interpreted as restricted Anosov (in the sense of Tholozan--Wang arXiv:2307.02934) representations over certain flow…
Anosov representations of word hyperbolic groups into higher-rank semisimple Lie groups are representations with finite kernel and discrete image that have strong analogies with convex cocompact representations into rank-one Lie groups.…
Let $\Gamma$ be a hyperbolic group and G be the isometry group of a Gromov-hyperbolic, properand geodesic metric space. We study the action of the outer automorphism group Out($\Gamma$) onthe set X($\Gamma$,G) of conjugacy classes of…
Limit sets of $\mathrm{AdS}$-quasi-Fuchsian groups of $\mathrm{PO}(n,2)$ are always Lipschitz submanifolds. The aim of this article is to show that they are never $\mathcal{C}^1$, except for the case of Fuchsian groups. As a byproduct we…

We prove that any nonabelian, non-Fuchsian representation of a surface group into PSL(2,R) is the holonomy of a folded hyperbolic structure on the surface. Using similar ideas, we establish that any non-Fuchsian representation rho of a…
We study the topology and geometry of compact complex manifolds associated to Anosov representations of surface groups and other hyperbolic groups in a complex semisimple Lie group $G$. These manifolds are obtained as quotients of the…
