This chapter surveys recent and less recent results on convergence of Kleinian representations, following Thurston's Double Limit and "AH(acylindrical) is compact" Theorems.
We formalize the notion of limit of an inverse system of metric spaces with $1$-Lipschitz projections having unbounded fibers. The purpose is to use sub-Riemannian groups for metrizing the space of signatures of rectifiable paths in…
We present examples of hyperbolizable 3-manifolds $M$ with the following property. Let $CC(\pi_1(M))$ denote the space of convex co-compact representations of $\pi_1(M)$. We show that for every $K\geq 1$ there exists a representation $\rho$…
This is an overview of Erlangen Programme at Large. Study of objects and properties, which are invariant under a group action, is very fruitful far beyond the traditional geometry. In this paper we demonstrate this on the example of the…
We define and study Poissonian actions of Polish groups as a framework to Poisson suspensions, characterize them spectrally, and provide a complete characterization of their ergodicity. We further construct 'spatial' Poissonian actions,…
There is a beautiful and well-studied relationship between the Poincare exponent and the fractal dimensions of the limit set of a Kleinian group. Motivated by this, given an arbitrary discrete subset of the unit ball we define a critical…
In this paper, we prove properness of the action of the reparametrization group $PSL(n+1, {\bf C})$ on the space of $v$-stable $L_k^p$-maps on ${\bf P}^n$ as well as related results.
We prove that finitely generated higher dimensional Kleinian groups with small critical exponent are always convex-cocompact. Along the way, we also prove some geometric properties for any complete pinched negatively curved manifold with…
We give a complete characterization of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups on exact symplectic manifolds with proper momentum maps. We deduce that every Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group on a contractible symplectic manifold…
The pp-wave (Penrose limit) in conformal field theory can be viewed as a special contraction of the unitary representations of the conformal group. We study the kinematics of conformal fields in this limit in a geometric approach where the…
Given an Euclidean space, this paper elucidates the topological link between the partial derivatives of the Minkowski functional associated to a set (assumed to be compact, convex, with a differentiable boundary and a non-empty interior)…
It is well known that $n$-dimensional projective group gives rise to a non-homogenous representation of the Lie algebra $sl(n+1)$ on the polynomial functions of the projective space. Using Shen's mixed product for Witt algebras (also known…
We develop a new structural result for cohomogeneity one actions on (not necessarily irreducible) symmetric spaces of noncompact type and arbitrary rank. We apply this result to classify cohomogeneity one actions on SL(n,R)/SO(n), n>1, up…
The spaces of point configurations on the projective line up to the action of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb K)$ and its maximal torus are canonically compactified by the Grothdieck-Knudsen and Losev-Manin moduli spaces $\overline M_{0,n}$ and…
We consider the following problem: for which classes of finite groups, and in particular finite simple groups, does the minimal dimension of a faithful, smooth action on a homology sphere coincide with the minimal dimension of a faithful,…
In a previous paper, we introduced the restricted tracial Rokhlin property with comparison, a ``tracial'' analog of the Rokhlin property for actions of second countable compact groups on infinite dimensional simple separable unital…
These are lectures on discrete groups of isometries of complex hyperbolic spaces, aimed to discuss interactions between the function theory on complex hyperbolic manifolds and the theory of discrete groups.
We investigate subsets of a multifractal decomposition of the limit set of a conformal graph directed Markov system, which is constructed from the Cayley graph of a free group with at least two generators. The subsets we consider are…
Let $K\subset\mathbb{C}$ be non-polar, compact and polynomially convex. We study the limits of equilibrium measures on preimages of compact sets, under $K$-regular sequences of polynomials, that center on $K$ and under the sequences of…
We classify finite-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras with $2$-dimensional central commutator ideals admitting a Lie group of automorphisms isomorphic to $SO_2(\mathbb R)$. This enables one to enlarge the class of nilpotent Lie algebras of…
