We survey the basics of the theory of deformations, (G, X)-structures on orbifolds, Hilbert geometry and Coxeter groups. The main examples of finitely generated groups for us will be Fuchsian groups, 3-manifold groups and Coxeter groups.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-05-09T11:54:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "convex real projective structures", "finitely generated groups", "coxeter groups", "fuchsian groups", "main examples" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
