Title:HIGHER TEICHMÜLLER THEORY ANDGEODESIC CURRENTS
Abstract:We start by recalling features of classicalTeichmüller space of a topological surface. Weexplain the notion of "higher Teichmüller" byintroducing the notion of maximalrepresentations and of Hitchin component andwe see how some of the classical features, suchas the Thurston compactification, generalize tothe "higher Teichmüller" setting.In the process we explain a structure theoremfor geodesic currents. This is joint work with M.Burger, A. Parreau and B. Pozzetti.
