We identify type-preserving representations $\phi: \pi_1(\Sigma)\to \mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ of the fundamental group of every punctured surface $\Sigma = \Sigma_{g,p}$ that are not Fuchsian yet send all non-peripheral simple closed…
Let $\rho$ be a representation of the fundamental group of a punctured surface into $\mathrm{PSL}_2 (\mathbb{C})$ that is not Fuchsian. We prove that there exists a Fuchsian representation that strictly dominates $\rho$ in the simple length…
We prove that the Gromov boundary of every hyperbolic group is homeomorphic to some Markov compactum. Our reasoning is based on constructing a sequence of covers of $\partial G$, which is quasi-$G$-invariant wrt. the ball $N$-type (defined…
We estimate the dimension of the variety of homomorphisms from $\Gamma$ to $ SO(p,q)$ with Zariski dense image, where $\Gamma$ is a Fuchsian group, and $SO(p,q)$ is the indefinite special orthogonal group with signature $(p,q)$.
We give counterexamples to a question of Bowditch that if a non-elementary type-preserving representation $\rho:\pi_1(\Sigma_{g,n})\rightarrow PSL(2;\mathbb R)$ of a punctured surface group sends every non-peripheral simple closed curve to…
We study a particular class of representations from the fundamental groups of punctured spheres $\Sigma_{0,n}$ to the group $\text{PSL} (2,\mathbb R)$ (and their moduli spaces), that we call \emph{super-maximal}. Super-maximal…
A Fuchsian group $\Gamma$ has a modular embedding if its adjoint trace field is a totally real number field and every unbounded Galois conjugate $\Gamma^\sigma$ comes equipped with a holomorphic (or conjugate holomorphic) map ${\phi^\sigma…
Almost-Fuchsian manifold is a class of complete hyperbolic three manifolds. Such a three-manifold is a quasi-Fuchsian manifold which contains a closed incompressible minimal surface with principal curvatures everywhere in the range of (-1,…
The main goal of this article is to generalize Mess' work and using results from Labourie--Wentworth, Potrie--Sambarino and Smilga, to show that inside Hitchin representations, infinitesimal deformations of Fuchsian representations of a…
We show that a collar lemma holds for Anosov representations of fundamental groups of surfaces into $\SL(n,\R)$ that satisfy partial hyperconvexity properties inspired from Labourie's work. This is the case for several open sets of Anosov…
We develop in detail the holographic framework for an $\mathcal{N}=2$ pure AdS supergravity model in four dimensions, including all the contributions from the fermionic fields and adopting the Fefferman-Graham parametrization. We work in…
In arXiv:1403.7671, Kapovich, Leeb and Porti gave several new characterizations of Anosov representations $\Gamma \to G$, including one where geodesics in the word hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ map to "Morse quasigeodesics" in the associated…
Let $N$ be a manifold of dimension $m$ with a flat vector bundle given by a representation $\rho:\pi_1(N) \rightarrow \mathrm{GL}(n, \mathbf{R})$ where $\pi_1(N)$ is finitely generated. The holonomy group $\rho$ is a $k$-partially…
Let $\Gamma$ be a surface group of higher genus. Let $\rho\_0: \Gamma \to {PGL}(V)$ be a discrete faithful representation with image contained in the natural embedding of ${SL}(2, {\mathbb R})$ in ${PGL}(3, {\mathbb R})$ as a group…
In this paper, we present a notion of quasiconvexity in the setting of finitely-generated groups with hyperbolically embedded subgroups. Our main result shows that this notion yields uniform quasiconvex constants in the setting of coned-off…
Given a discrete group $\Gamma=<g_1,\ldots,g_M>$ and a number $K\in\mathbb N$, a unitary representation $\rho:\Gamma\to U_K$ is called quasi-flat when the eigenvalues of each $\rho(g_i)\in U_K$ are uniformly distributed among the $K$-th…
Let $G$ be a connected semisimple real algebraic group. For any Zariski dense Anosov subgroup $\Gamma <G$, we show that a $\Gamma$-conformal measure is supported on the limit set of $\Gamma$ if and only if its "dimension" is…
Relatively dominated representations give a common generalization of geometrically finiteness in rank one on the one hand, and the Anosov condition which serves as a higher-rank analogue of convex cocompactness on the other. This note…
Let $\Gamma$ be a Fuchsian group in ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$. In this note, we discuss the existence of $\rho$-equivariant functions for a two-dimensional representation $\rho$ of $\Gamma$. This assertion was first stated by Saber and…
We study through the lens of Anosov representations the dynamical properties of reducible suspensions of linear representations of non-elementary hyperbolic groups, which are linear representations preserving and acting weakly unipotently…
