SUMMARY:Higher Teichmuller Theory and Thermodynamical Formalism - Pollicot
 t\, M (University of Warwick)
DTSTART:20140704T080000Z

CONTACT:Mustapha Amrani
DESCRIPTION:One can consider cocompact Fuchsian groups from the point of v
 iew of representations of a surface group into SL(2\, R).  There has been 
 recent interest in representations into SL(d\, R) for d > 2 which we might
  call ``Higher Teichmuller''\, particular with the recent work of Bridgema
 n\, Canary\, Labourie and Sambarino.   This talk will describe the usefuln
 ess of classical ideas in thermodynamic formalism in the modern study of s
 uch representations.\n
