Guichard-Labourie-Wienhard conjecture on positive representations
Let be a closed surface of genus , let admit a -positive structure, and let be the associated parabolic subgroup. A representation is -positive if there exists a continuous -equivariant map
which sends positive triples in to positive triples in . The ambient quotient is .
Guichard-Labourie-Wienhard conjecture. The set of -positive representations is open and closed in . In particular, -positive representations form higher Teichmüller spaces.
The conjecture would produce higher Teichmüller spaces for all simple Lie groups admitting a -positive structure. The source lists the relevant families of groups and does not state that the conjecture is resolved.
