Marked length rigidity of rank one symmetric spaces and their product

Abstract

In this paper we show that if two Zariski dense representations, from a group G into Iso(X) where X is rank one symmetric space, have the proportional marked length spectrum, then they are conjugate. As a generalization we show that a Zariski dense representation into the isometry group of the product of rank one symmetric spaces is determined by the marked cross ratio.
