Flexibility of Group Actions on the Circle
«“The book contains a lot of information and is written in a concise and well-organized way, describing its contents in a long introductory chapter and starting each chapter with a small abstract, with many references to the relevant literature and comments on related concepts and on related work (maybe sometimes the addition of more intuitive versions and motivations of some of the basic, sometimes quite technical definitions and concepts would have been helpful for a less experienced reader).” (Bruno Zimmermann, zbMATH 1407.57001, 2019)»
In this partly expository work, a framework is developed for building exotic circle actions of certain classical groups.
The authors give general combination theorems for indiscrete isometry groups of hyperbolic space which apply to Fuchsian and limit groups.

In this partly expository work, a framework is developed for building exotic circle actions of certain classical groups.
The authors give general combination theorems for indiscrete isometry groups of hyperbolic space which apply to Fuchsian and limit groups. An abundance of integer-valued subadditive defect-one quasimorphisms on these groups follow as a corollary.
The main classes of groups considered are limit and Fuchsian groups. Limit groups are shown to admit large collections of faithful actions on the circle with disjoint rotation spectra. For Fuchsian groups, further flexibility results are proved and the existence of non-geometric actions of free and surface groups is established. An account is given of the extant notions of semi-conjugacy, showing they are equivalent.
This book is suitable for experts interested in flexibility of representations, and for non-experts wanting an introduction to group representations into circle homeomorphism groups.
