We study isometric actions of compact Lie groups on complete orientable positively curved $n$-manifolds whose orbit spaces have non-empty boundary in the sense of Alexandrov geometry. In particular, we classify quotients of the unit sphere…

In this paper, we classify horospherical invariant Radon measures for Anosov subgroups of arbitrary semisimple real algebraic groups. This generalizes the works of Burger and Roblin in rank one to higher ranks. At the same time, this…

This is a (very subjective) survey paper for nonspecialists covering group actions on Gromov hyperbolic spaces. The first section is about hyperbolic groups themselves, while the rest of the paper focuses on mapping class groups and…

We show that every connected real Lie group can be realized as the full automorphism group of a Stein hyperbolic complex manifold.

We prove that the action of a reductive complex Lie group on a K\"ahler manifold can be linearized in the neighbourhood of a fixed point, provided that the restriction of the action to some compact real form of the group is Hamiltonian with…

By providing new finite criteria which certify that a finitely generated subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}(d,\mathbb{R})$ or $\mathrm{SL}(d,\mathbb{C})$ is projective Anosov, we obtain a practical algorithm to verify the Anosov condition. We…

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…

The Cartan and Iwasawa decompositions of real reductive Lie groups play a fundamental role in the representation theory of the groups and their corresponding symmetric spaces. These decompositions are defined by an involution with a compact…

We present an application of Hodge theory towards the study of irreducible unitary representations of reductive Lie groups. We describe a conjecture about such representations and discuss some progress towards its proof.

We give very flexible, concrete constructions of discrete and faithful epresentations of right-angled Artin groups into higher-rank Lie groups. Using the geometry of the associated symmetric spaces and the combinatorics of the groups, we…

We exhibit two examples of convex cocompact subgroups of the isometry groups of real hyperbolic spaces with limit set a Pontryagin sphere: one generated by $50$ reflections of $\mathbb{H}^4$, and the other by a rotation of order $21$ and a…

These notes give an elementary introduction to Lie groups, Lie algebras, and their representations. Designed to be accessible to graduate students in mathematics or physics, they have a minimum of prerequisites. Topics include definitions…

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…

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…

Foundational material on complex Lie supergroups and their radial operators is presented. In particular, Berezin's recursion formula for describing the radial parts of fundamental operators in general linear and ortho-symplectic cases is…

We study the core of a proper action by a Lie group $G$ on a smooth manifold $M$, extending the construction for $G$ compact by Skjelbred and Straume. Moreover, we show that many properties of a proper $G$-action on $M$ are determined by…

We prove that if $G$ is a noncompact connected real reductive linear Lie group, then any discrete subgroup of $G$ acting properly discontinuously and cocompactly on some homogeneous space $G/H$ of $G$ is quasi-isometrically embedded and…

Given a finitely generated group $\Gamma$, a directed graph $\Lambda$, and a map $R:\Lambda\to\Gamma$, we introduce the notion of an $(R,\Lambda)$-directed Anosov representation. This is a weakening of the notion of Anosov representations.…

We prove the locally differentiable rigidity of generic partially hyperbolic abelian algebraic high-rank actions on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from split symplectic Lie groups. We also gave a non-generic action rigidity example on…
