In this short note we explain how to adapt the construction of two Riemannian metrics on the $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})$-Hitchin component to the deformation space of globally hyperbolic anti-de Sitter structures: the pressure metric and…

This work is intended to investigate the geometry of anti-de Sitter spacetime (AdS), from the point of view of the Laplacian Comparison Theorem (LCT), and to give another description of the hyperbolical embedding standard formalism of the…

The Hitchin component of the character variety of representations of a surface group $\pi_1(S)$ into $\mathrm{PSL}_d(\mathbb{R})$ for some $d \geq 3$ can be equipped with a pressure metric whose restriction to the Fuchsian locus equals the…

We study the principal curvatures of properly embedded constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in the Anti-de Sitter space $\mathbb{H}^{n,1}$. We generalize the notion of convex hull and give an upper bound on the principal curvatures which…

We prove that any weakly acausal curve $\Gamma$ in the boundary of Anti-de Sitter (2+1)-space is the asymptotic boundary of two spacelike $K$-surfaces, one of which is past-convex and the other future-convex, for every $K\in(-\infty,-1)$.…

The Epstein-Penner convex hull construction associates to every decorated punctured hyperbolic surface a polyhedral convex body in the Minkowski space. It works in the de Sitter and anti-de Sitter spaces as well. In these three spaces, the…
