Stationary measures for \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})-actions on homogeneous bundles over flag varieties

Publication date 13 November 2022

Abstract: Let

G

be a real semisimple Lie group with finite centre and without compact factors,

Q < G

a parabolic subgroup and

X

a homogeneous space of

G

admitting an equivariant projection on the flag variety

G / Q

with fibres given by copies of lattice quotients of a semisimple factor of

Q

. Given a probability measure

m u

, Zariski-dense in a copy of

H = m a t h r m {S L}_{2} (m a t h b b R)

in

G

, we give a description of

m u

-stationary probability measures on

X

and prove corresponding equidistribution results. Contrary to the results of Benoist-Quint corresponding to the case

G = Q

, the type of stationary measures that

m u

admits depends strongly on the position of

H

relative to

Q

. We describe possible cases and treat all but one of them, among others using ideas from the works of Eskin-Mirzakhani and Eskin-Lindenstrauss.
