Geometric Analysis and Surface Groups
We propose to study links between curves in flag manifolds, surfaces solutions of geometric partial differential equations in some affine symmetric spaces, and functions on the moduli space of curves. We will consider the relevant energy functions on the moduli spaces of those curves, or on the moduli space of Anosov representations for periodic data, in particular in the context of positivity. Amongst our concrete ambitious goals are: obtain topological invariant through quantising Anosov deformation spaces, define and compute volumes of Anosov deformation spaces and prove recursion formulae for them, find surfaces in symmetric spaces associated to opers and the relevant higher-rank…
