Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus $g \geq 2$. We construct locally homogeneous geometric structures on closed 5-manifolds fibering over $S$, modeled on the two partial flag manifolds $\mathrm{Ein}^{2,3}$ and $\mathrm{Pho}^\times$ of the…

We prove that any Borel Anosov representations of a surface group into $Sp(4,\mathbb{R})$ that has maximal Toledo invariant must be Hitchin. We also prove that a representation of a surface group into $Sp(2n,\mathbb{R})$ that is…

We introduce the concept of a Fock bundle, a smooth principal bundle over a surface equipped with a special kind of adjoint-valued 1-form, as a new tool for studying character varieties of surface groups. Although similar to Higgs bundles,…

We compute Hochschild cohomology of projective hypersurfaces starting from the Gerstenhaber-Schack complex of the (restricted) structure sheaf. We are particularly interested in the second cohomology group and its relation with…

A spectrahedron is a set defined by a linear matrix inequality. A projection of a spectrahedron is often called a semidefinitely representable set. We show that the convex hull of a finite union of such projections is again a projection of…

In a recent paper \cite{3}, a semi-stable degeneration of moduli space of Higgs bundles on a curve has been constructed. In this paper, we show that there is a relative log-symplectic form on this degeneration, whose restriction to the…

Let X be a smooth projective curve over a field of characteristic p>0. We show that the Hitchin morphism, which associates to a Higgs bundle its characteristic polynomial, has a non-trivial deformation over the affine line. This deformation…

We prove that some relative character varieties of the fundamental group of a punctured sphere into the Hermitian Lie groups $\mathrm{SU}(p,q)$ admit compact connected components. The representations in these components have several…

In this paper, we study Fuchsian loci of ${\rm PSL}_n(\mathbb{R})$-Hitchin components. In particular, using the Bonahon-Dreyer parametrization of ${\rm PSL}_n(\mathbb{R})$-Hitchin components, we give an explicit parametrization of Fuchsian…

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…
