We introduce an $A_\infty$-algebra structure on the Hochschild cohomology of the endomorphism bimodule of a finite-dimensional representation of an associative algebra. We prove that this structure determines a presentation for…

Following the work of Burger, Iozzi and Wienhard for representations, in this paper we introduce the notion of maximal measurable cocycles of a surface group. More precisely, let $\mathbf{G}$ be a semisimple algebraic $\mathbb{R}$-group…

In 1990, Hitchin's proved a component of the space of representations of a surface group in SL(n,R) is homeomorphic to a ball. For n=2,3 this component has been identified with the holonomies of geometric structures (hyperbolic for n=2, or…

Given a $\vartheta$-Anosov representation into a real reductive group $G$, we construct a natural resonance spectrum associated with the representation. This spectrum is a complex analytic variety of codimension $1$ in…

We prove that any hyperbolic group acting properly discontinuously and cocompactly on a $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ cube complex admits a projective Anosov representation into $\mathrm{SL}(d, \mathbb{R})$ for some $d$. More specifically, we show that…

Let $\Gamma\subset \mathsf{PSL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ be a lattice and $\rho:\Gamma\to \mathsf{Sp}(2n,\mathbb{R})$ be a maximal representation. We show that $\rho$ satisfies a measurable $(1,1,2)-$hypertransversality condition. With this we define…

For each natural number n, we construct an example of a graph manifold supporting at least n different Anosov flows that are not orbit equivalent. Our construction is reminiscent of the Thurston-Handel construction: we cut a geodesic flow…

We give a complete topological classification of transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in 3-manifolds in terms of Anosov flows, completing a program proposed by Pujals. In particular, this also allows to give a full answer to the…

Since their introduction by Thurston, geodesic laminations on hyperbolic surfaces occur in many contexts. In this paper, we propose a generalization of geodesic laminations on locally CAT(0), complete, geodesic metric spaces, whose boundary…

We prove automorphy lifting results for geometric representations $\rho:G_F \rightarrow GL_2(\mathcal{O})$, with $F$ a totally real field, and $\mathcal{O}$ the ring of integers of a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with $p$ an odd prime,…

We found a dichotomy involving the unstable Lyapunov exponent of a special Anosov endomorphism of the torus induced by the conjugacy with the linearization. In fact, either every unstable leaf meets on a set of zero measure the set for…

Andersen, Masbaum and Ueno conjectured that certain quantum representations of surface mapping class groups should send pseudo-Anosov mapping classes to elements of infinite order (for large enough level $r$). In this paper, we relate the…
