On Asymptotic Behavior and Rectangular Band Structures in SL(2, R)
Journal of Lie Theory, Volume 11 (2001) no. 2, pp. 559-604
We associate with every subsemigroup of Sl(2, R), not contained in a single Borel group, an "asymptotic object", a rectangular band which is defined on a closed subset of a torus surface. Using this concept we show that the horizon set (in the sense of J. D. Lawson [J. Lie Theory 4 (1994) 17--29]) of a connected open subsemigroup of Sl(2, R) is always convex, in fact the interior of a three dimensional Lie semialgebra. Other applications include the classification of all exponential subsemigroups of Sl(2, R) and the asymptotics of semigroups of integer matrices in Sl(2, R).
