Abstract: Let $G$ be a connected, semisimple real algebraic group and $Gamma<G$ be a Zariski dense discrete subgroup. Let $N$ denote a maximal horospherical subgroup of $G$, and $P=MAN$ the minimal parabolic subgroup which is the normalizer of $N$. Let $mathcalE$ denote the unique $P$-minimal subset of $$ and let $mathcal{E}_0$ be a $P^{c}irc$-minimal subset. We consider a notion of a horospherical limit point in the Furstenberg boundary $G/P$ and show that the following are equivalent for any $[g]inmathcal{E}_0$: (1) $gPinG/P$ is a horospherical limit point; (2) $[g]NM$ is dense in $mathcalE$; (3) $[g]N$ is dense in $mathcal{E}_0$. The equivalence of (1) and (2) is due to Dal'bo in the rank one case. We also observe that unlike convex cocompact groups of rank one Lie groups, the $NM$-minimality of $mathcalE$ does not hold in a general Anosov homogeneous space.
