Proper affine deformations of positive representations

Abstract We define, for every positive Anosov representation of a nonabelian free group into , a family of ‐valued cocycles which induce proper affine actions on . We construct fundamental domains in bounded by generalized crooked planes for these affine actions, and deduce that the quotient manifolds are homeomorphic to handlebodies.
