Abstract

We show that, in the character variety of surface group representations into the Lie group PSL(2,ℝ) × PSL(2,ℝ), the compactification of the maximal component introduced by the second author is a closed ball upon which the mapping class group acts. We study the dynamics of this action. Finally, we describe the boundary points geometrically as (Formula presented)–valued mixed structures.
