Rigidity of certain solvable actions on the sphere

Dynamical Systems 2014-11-11 v2

Abstract

An analog of the Baumslag-Solitar group BS(1,k) naturally acts on the sphere by conformal transformations. The action is not locally rigid in higher dimension, but exhibits a weak form of local rigidity. More precisely, any perturbation preserves a smooth conformal structure.
