SMRI Seminar, 20 May: Stephan Tillmann – On the space of properly convex projective structures

SMRI Seminar
On the space of properly convex projective structures
Stephan Tillmann (University of Sydney)
Thursday, 20 May 2021, 15:30–16:30 AEST (Sydney)
Location: The Quadrangle S227 (University of Sydney staff, students and affiliates only) and via Zoom

Abstract: This talk will be in two parts.
I will outline joint work with Daryl Cooper concerning the space of holonomies of properly convex real projective structures on manifolds whose fundamental group satisfies a few natural properties. This generalises previous work by Benoist for closed manifolds. A key example, computed with Joan Porti, is used to illustrate the main results.

Please register to attend.
The seminar will be held online via Zoom. You will be sent a confirmation email with connection details.

This seminar will be recorded (participants only when asking questions) and made available on the SMRI Youtube channel.
