In this paper, we construct cataclysm deformations for $\theta$-Anosov representations into a semisimple non-compact connected real Lie group $G$ with finite center, where $\theta \subset \Delta$ is a subset of the simple roots that is…

In this article we construct a type of deformations of representations $\pi_1(M)\rightarrow G$ where $G$ is an arbitrary lie group and $M$ is a large class of manifolds including CAT(0) manifolds. The deformations are defined based on…

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…

We construct for each conformal structure on a closed orientable surface of genus at least 2 a proper slice in the character variety of representations of the associated surface group into SL(3,R) that belongs to the Barbot component and…

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…

The notion of Anosov representations has been introduced by Labourie in his study of the Hitchin component for SL(n,R). Subsequently, Anosov representations have been studied mainly for surface groups, in particular in the context of higher…

A long-standing conjecture asserts that any Anosov diffeomorphism of a closed manifold is finitely covered by a diffeomorphism which is topologically conjugate to a hyperbolic automorphism of a nilpotent manifold. In this paper, we show…

A measured laminations on the universal hyperbolic solenoid $\S$ is, by our definition, a leafwise measured lamination with appropriate continuity for the transverse variations. An earthquakes on theuniversal hyperbolic solenoid $\S$ is…

We identify all Anosov representations of compact hyperbolic triangle reflection groups into the higher rank Lie group $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb R)$. Specifically, we prove that such a representation is Anosov if and only if either it lies in…

We generalize one part of Thurston's hyperbolic Dehn filling theorem to arbitrary-rank semisimple Lie groups by showing that certain deformations of extended geometrically finite subgroups of a semisimple Lie group are still extended…

Anosov representations $\rho$ of a hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ into a semisimple Lie group $G$ are known to admit cocompact domains of discontinuity in flag varieties $G/Q$, endowing the compact quotient manifolds $M_\rho$ with a…

We give a new construction of the measure of maximal entropy for transitive Anosov flows through a method analogous to the construction of Patterson-Sullivan measures in negative curvature. In order to carry out our procedure we prove…

We develop a theory of Anosov representation of geometrically finite Fuchsian groups in SL(d,R) and show that cusped Hitchin representations are Borel Anosov in this sense. We establish analogues of many properties of traditional Anosov…

Hyperbolic Dehn surgery and the bending procedure provide two ways which can be used to describe hyperbolic deformations of a complete hyperbolic structure on a 3-manifold. Moreover, one can obtain examples of non-Haken manifolds without…

Let $M$ be a closed 3-manifold which admits an Anosov flow. In this paper we develop a technique for constructing partially hyperbolic representatives in many mapping classes of $M$. We apply this technique both in the setting of geodesic…

In this article, we single out representations of surface groups into $\mathsf{PSL}_d(\mathbb{C})$ which generalize the well-studied family of pleated surfaces into $\mathsf{PSL}_2(\mathbb{C})$. Our representations arise as sufficiently…

This is the second of a pair of papers on extended geometrically finite (EGF) representations, which were originally posted as a single article under the title "An extended definition of Anosov representation for relatively hyperbolic…

Thurston introduced shear deformations (cataclysms) on geodesic laminations - deformations including left and right displacements along geodesics. For hyperbolic surfaces with cusps, we consider shear deformations on disjoint unions of…

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…

The invariant measured foliations of a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism induce a natural (singular) Sol structure on mapping tori of surfaces with pseudo-Anosov monodromy. We show that when the pseudo-Anosov $\phi:S\rightarrow S$ has orientable…
