Invariant Subvarieties of Minimal Homological Dimension, Zero Lyapunov Exponents, and Monodromy

preprint2021arXivOpen access

Abstract

We classify the GL(2,R)-invariant subvarieties M in strata of Abelian differentials for which any two M-parallel cylinders have homologous core curves. This answers a question of Mirzakhani and Wright. As a corollary we show that outside of an explicit list of exceptions, if M is a GL(2,R)-invariant subvariety, then the Kontsevich-Zorich cocycle has nonzero Lyapunov exponents in the symplectic orthogonal of the projection of the tangent bundle of M to absolute cohomology.
