This article discusses two recent works by the author, one with Brown and Hurtado on Zimmer’s conjecture and one with Bader, Miller and Stover on totally geodesic submanifolds of real and complex hyperbolic manifolds. The main purpose of juxtaposing these two very disparate sets of results in one article is to emphasize a common aspect: that the study of invariant and partially invariant measures outside the homogeneous setting is important to questions about rigidity in geometry and dynamics…

This is a preliminary version of lecture notes based on a 6 hour course given at the workshop Dynamics Beyond Uniform Hyperbolicity held in Provo, Utah June 2017. The goal of this course is two-fold.
Flat Surfaces
Various problems of geometry, topology and dynamical systems on surfaces as well as some questions concerning one-dimensional dynamical systems lead to the study of closed surfaces endowed with a
Free quotients and the first betti number of some hyperbolic manifolds
In this note we present a very simple method of proving that some hyperbolic manifoldsM have finite sheeted covers with positive first Betti number. The method applies to the standard arithmetic

In the first paper of this series (arxiv.org/abs/1210.2961) we studied the asymptotic behavior of Betti numbers, twisted torsion and other spectral invariants for sequences of lattices in Lie groups
Measure rigidity for random dynamics on surfaces and related skew products

Given a surface $M$ and a Borel probability measure $\nu$ on the group of $C^2$-diffeomorphisms of $M$, we study $\nu$-stationary probability measures on $M$. We prove for hyperbolic stationary

Any action of a finite index subgroup in SL(n,ℤ),n≥4 on then-dimensional torus which has a finite orbit and contains an Anosov element which splits as a direct product is smoothly conjugate to an
Local Rigidity for Cocycles

In this paper we study perturbations of constant cocycles for actions of higher rank semi-simple algebraic groups and their lattices. Roughly speaking, for ergodic actions, Zimmer's cocycle

Consider a complex projective space with its Fubini-Study metric. We study certain one parameter deformations of this metric on the complement of an arrangement (= finite union of hyperplanes) whose

We show that large classes of non-arithmetic hyperbolic $n$-manifolds, including the hybrids introduced by Gromov and Piatetski-Shapiro and many of their generalizations, have only finitely many

Gromov and Piatetski-Shapiro proved existence of finite volume non-arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds of any given dimension. In dimension four and higher, we show that there are about vv such manifolds
