Abstract

We construct a class of normal projective embeddings of PSL(2, k), for k = ℝ and ℂ, which we call boundary compactifications of SL(2, k). These arise essentially as the Zariski closures of orbits in under the diagonal action of SL(2, k). In addition, we determine precisely when our examples can be SL(2, k)-homeomorphic, showing that the resulting deformation space is a countable union of positive-dimensional families.
