We discuss how one uses the thermodynamic formalism to produce metrics on higher Teichm\"uller spaces. Our higher Teichm\"uller spaces will be spaces of Anosov representations of a word-hyperbolic group into a semi-simple Lie group. We…

In this paper, we produce a mapping class group invariant pressure metric on the space QF(S) of quasiconformal deformations of a co-finite area Fuchsian group uniformizing a surface S. Our pressure metric arises from an analytic pressure…

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.…

We establish an entropy rigidity theorem for Hitchin representations of all geometrically finite Fuchsian groups which generalizes a theorem of Potrie and Sambarino for Hitchin representations of closed surface groups. In the process, we…

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…

We interpret the Hilbert entropy of a convex projective structure on a closed higher-genus surface as the Hausdorff dimension of the non-differentiability points of the limit set in the full flag space $\mathcal F(\mathbb R^3)$.…

Let $\Gamma$ be a Gromov hyperbolic group, endowed with an arbitrary left-invariant hyperbolic metric, quasi-isometric to a word metric. The action of $\Gamma$ on its boundary $\partial\Gamma$ endowed with the Patterson-Sullivan measure…

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…

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…

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…

Let $\Gamma$ be a one-ended, torsion-free hyperbolic group and let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group with finite center. Using the canonical JSJ splitting due to Sela, we define amalgam Anosov representations of $\Gamma$ into $G$ and prove that…

We provide a good dynamical framework allowing to generalize Thurston's asymmetric metric and the associated Finsler norm from Teichm\"uller space to large classes of Anosov representations. In many cases, including the space of Hitchin…

We introduce different notions of separation for families of Anosov representations. We show that, along a diverging sequence of such families, the critical exponent is asymptotic to a combinatorial invariant computable from the spectral…

The aim of this article is to understand the geometry of limit sets in pseudo-Riemannian hyperbolic geometry. We focus on a class of subgroups of $\mathrm{PO}(p,q+1)$ introduced by Danciger, Gu\'eritaud and Kassel, called…
