Let $\Gamma$ be a one-ended, torsion-free hyperbolic group and let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group with finite center. Using the canonical JSJ splitting due to Sela, we define amalgam Anosov representations of $\Gamma$ into $G$ and prove that…

Anosov representations $\rho$ of a hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ into a semisimple Lie group $G$ are known to admit cocompact domains of discontinuity in flag varieties $G/Q$, endowing the compact quotient manifolds $M_\rho$ with a…

Let $N$ be a complete affine manifold $\mathbb{A}^n/\Gamma$ of dimension $n$, where $\Gamma$ is an affine transformation group acting on the complete affine space $\mathbb{A}^n$, and $K(\Gamma, 1)$ is realized as a finite CW-complex. $N$…

Given a non-compact semisimple real Lie group $G$ and an Anosov subgroup $\Gamma$, we utilize the correspondence between $\mathbb R$-valued additive characters on Levi subgroups $L$ of $G$ and $\mathbb R$-affine homogeneous line bundles…

The notion of Anosov representations has been introduced by Labourie in his study of the Hitchin component for SL(n,R). Subsequently, Anosov representations have been studied mainly for surface groups, in particular in the context of higher…

In this two part work we prove that for every finitely generated subgroup $\Gamma < \text{Out}(F_n)$, either $\Gamma$ is virtually abelian or $H^2_b(\Gamma;\mathbb{R})$ contains an embedding of $\ell^1$. The method uses actions on…

We construct open domains of discontinuity for Anosov representations acting on some homogeneous spaces, including (pseudo-Riemannian) symmetric spaces. This generalizes work of Kapovich-Leeb-Porti on flag spaces. Our results complement…

For uniform lattices $\Gamma$ in rank 1 Lie groups, we construct Anosov representations of virtual doubles of $\Gamma$ along certain quasiconvex subgroups. We also show that virtual HNN extensions of these lattices over some cyclic…

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…

Let $N$ be a complete affine manifold $A^n/\Gamma$ of dimension $n$ where $\Gamma$ is an affine transformation group and $K(\Gamma, 1)$ is realized as a finite CW-complex. $N$ has a partially hyperbolic holonomy group if the tangent bundle…

In this paper we present a new characterization of free group actions (in classical differential geometry), involving dynamical systems and representations of the corresponding transformation groups. In fact, given a dynamical system, we…

Given a free product $G$, we investigate the existence of faithful free representations of the outer automorphism group $\text{Out}(G)$, or in other words of embeddings of $\text{Out}(G)$ into $\text{Out}\left(F_m\right)$ for some $m$. This…

Given a finitely generated subgroup $\Gamma \le \mathrm{Out}(\mathbb{F})$ of the outer automorphism group of the rank $r$ free group $\mathbb{F} = F_r$, there is a corresponding free group extension $1 \to \mathbb{F} \to E_{\Gamma} \to…

The automorphisms of a two-generator free group acting on the space of orientation-preserving isometric actions of on hyperbolic 3-space defines a dynamical system. Those actions which preserve a hyperbolic plane but not an orientation on…

We show that if $G$ is a real semi-simple Lie group, and $\Gamma$ is a discrete subgroup of $G$ containing a subgroup $\Sigma$ acting ergodically (in a strong sense) on the Furstenberg boundary of $G$, then $\Gamma$ is not isomorphic to a…

For noncompact semisimple Lie groups $G$ we study the dynamics of the actions of their discrete subgroups $\Gamma<G$ on the associated partial flag manifolds $G/P$. Our study is based on the observation that they exhibit also in higher rank…

We prove that any hyperbolic group acting properly discontinuously and cocompactly on a $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ cube complex admits a projective Anosov representation into $\mathrm{SL}(d, \mathbb{R})$ for some $d$. More specifically, we show that…

We study actions of discrete subgroups $\Gamma$ of semi-simple Lie groups $G$ on associated oriented flag manifolds. These are quotients $G/P$, where the subgroup $P$ lies between a parabolic subgroup and its identity component. For Anosov…

We define the notion of affine Anosov representations of word hyperbolic groups into the affine group $\mathsf{SO}^0(n+1,n)\ltimes\mathbb{R}^{2n+1}$. We then show that a representation $\rho$ of a word hyperbolic group is affine Anosov if…

Given a finitely generated group $\Gamma$, we study the space ${\rm Isom}(\Gamma,{\mathbb Q\mathbb U})$ of all actions of $\Gamma$ by isometries of the rational Urysohn metric space ${\mathbb Q\mathbb U}$, where ${\rm Isom}(\Gamma,{\mathbb…
