Abstract (Expand)

We find a canonical decomposition of a geodesic current on a surface of finite type arising from a topological decomposition of the surface along special geodesics. We show that each component either is associated to a measured lamination or has positive systole. For a current with positive systole, we show that the intersection function on the set of closed curves is bilipschitz equivalent to the length function with respect to a hyperbolic metric. We show that the subset of currents with positive systole is open and that the mapping class group acts properly discontinuously on it. As an application, we obtain in the case of compact surfaces a structure theorem on the length functions appearing in the length spectrum compactification both of the Hitchin and of the maximal character varieties and determine therein an open set of discontinuity for the action of the mapping class group.

Abstract (Expand)

There is a classical result known as the collar lemma for hyperbolic surfaces. A consequence of the collar lemma is that if two closed curves A and B on a closed orientable hyperbolizable surface intersect each other, then there is an explicit lower bound for the length of A in terms of the length of B, which holds for every hyperbolic structure on the surface. In this article, we prove an analog of the classical collar lemma in the setting of Hitchin representations.

We define the notion of affine Anosov representations of word hyperbolic groups into the affine group \SO^0(n+1,n)⋉\bR^2n+1. We then show that a representation ρof a word hyperbolic group is affine Anosov if and only if its linear part \mathttL_ρis Anosov in \mathsfSO^0(n+1,n) with respect to the stabilizer of a maximal isotropic plane and ρ(Γ) acts properly on \mathbbR^2n+1.
