Title | Geodesic currents, positive cross-ratios and degenerations of maximal representations |
Abstract | Degenerations of maximal representations of a surface group may be seen as maximal representations in Sp(2n,F) for some non-Archimedean real closed field F. We associate to every such maximal representation a geodesic current whose intersection number is the length function of the representation for the L^1 norm. When the current is a measured lamination, we reconstruct an equivariant isometric embedding of the dual real tree in the Bruhat-Tits building of Sp(2n,F). This involves a general construction of an intersection current associated to a non necessarily continuous positive cross-ratio. This is joint work with Marc Burger, Alessandra Iozzi, and Beatrice Pozzetti. |
