Namely, if $\\Gamma_A$ and $\\Gamma_B$ are Anosov subgroups of a semisimple Lie group $G$ of noncompact type, then under suitable topological assumptions, the group generated by $\\Gamma_A$ and $\\Gamma_B$ in $G$ is again Anosov, and is naturally isomorphic to the free product $\\Gamma_A*\\Gamma_B$. Such a generalization was conjectured in our previous article with Bernhard Leeb (arXiv:1805.07374).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-05-08T17:32:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "22E40", "20F65", "53C35", "14M15" ], "keywords": [ "anosov subgroups", "classical klein-maskit combination theorem", "free product case", "semisimple lie group", "generalization" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 24, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
