    The authors study smooth factors of the standard actions of lattices in higher-rank semisimple Lie groups on flag manifolds. Under a condition on the existence of a single differentiable sink, they show that these factors are \(C^\infty\)-conjugate to the standard actions on flag manifolds. As an application, they also get some local rigidity results.
