Ping-pong partitions and locally discrete groups of real-analytic circle diffeomorphisms. II: Applications. (Q6184617)

Summary: In the first part of this work we have established an efficient method to obtain a topological classification of locally discrete, finitely generated, virtually free subgroups of real-analytic circle diffeomorphisms. In this second part we describe several consequences, among which the solution (within this setting) to an old conjecture by \textit{P. R. Dippolito} [Ann. Math. (2) 107, 403--453 (1978; Zbl 0418.57012)] that actions with invariant Cantor sets must be semi-conjugate to piecewise linear actions. In addition, we exhibit examples of locally discrete, minimal actions which are not of Fuchsian type. For Part I see [\textit{J. Alonso} et al., ``Ping-pong partitions and locally discrete groups of real-analytic circle diffeomorphisms. I: Construction'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:1906.03578}].
