Tessellations of solvmanifolds

Tessellations of solvmanifolds

Abstract

Let A A be a closed subgroup of a connected, solvable Lie group  G G , such that the homogeneous space A ∖ G A\backslash G is simply connected. As a special case of a theorem of C. T. C. Wall, it is known that every tessellation A ∖ G / Γ A\backslash G/\Gamma of A ∖ G A\backslash G is finitely covered by a compact homogeneous space G ′ / Γ ′ G’/\Gamma ’ . We prove that the covering map can be taken to be very well behaved — a “crossed" affine map. This establishes a connection between the geometry of the tessellation and the geometry of the homogeneous space. In particular, we see that every geometrically-defined flow on A ∖ G / Γ A\backslash G/\Gamma that has a dense orbit is covered by a natural flow on G ′ / Γ ′ G’/\Gamma ’ .
