In particular, we show that Sp(4k,Z) contain Zariski-dense surface subgroups for all k.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-07-13T15:00:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "22E40" ], "keywords": [ "symplectic group", "contain zariski-dense surface subgroups", "mapping class group orbits", "zariski-dense maximal representation", "maximal diagonal representations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
