Abstract (Expand)

A geometric transition is a continuous path of geometric structures that changes type, meaning that the model geometry, i.e., the homogeneous space on which the structures are modeled, abruptly changes. In order to rigorously study transitions, one must define a notion of geometric limit at the level of homogeneous spaces, describing the basic process by which one homogeneous geometry may transform into another. We develop a general framework to describe transitions in the context that both geometries involved are represented as sub-geometries of a larger ambient geometry. Specializing to the setting of real projective geometry, we classify the geometric limits of any sub-geometry whose structure group is a symmetric subgroup of the projective general linear group. As an application, we classify all limits of three-dimensional hyperbolic geometry inside of projective geometry, finding Euclidean, Nil, and Sol geometry among the limits. We prove, however, that the other Thurston geometries, in particular \mathbbH^2 \times \mathbbR and \widetilde \textup SL_2\mathbbR, do not embed in any limit of hyperbolic geometry in this sense.

Abstract (Expand)

We introduce Θ-positivity, a new notion of positivity in real semisimple Lie groups. The notion of Θ-positivity generalizes at the same time Lusztig’s total positivity in split real Lie groups as well as well known concepts of positivity in Lie groups of Hermitian type. We show that there are two other families of Lie groups, \SO(p,q) for p<q, and a family of exceptional Lie groups, which admit a Θ-positive structure. We describe key aspects of Θ-positivity and make a connection with representations of surface groups and higher Teichmüller theory.
