Geometric Structures Associated to Anosov Representations - Lecture 2

This lecture is the second part of Sara Maloni's presentation on "Geometric Structures Associated to Anosov Representations" as part of the "New Trends in Teichmüller Theory" program at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Explore the connections between Anosov representations and geometric structures, building on concepts introduced in the first lecture. The presentation delves into advanced topics at the intersection of higher Teichmüller theory, Higgs bundles, and algebraic geometry. This lecture is part of a two-week thematic program featuring mini-courses and research talks by experts in the field, designed to highlight recent developments in Teichmüller theory including metric theory, infinite-type surfaces, and anti-de Sitter geometry. The program aims to foster collaboration and research initiatives among participants, including students and postdocs interested in these emerging areas of mathematics.
