Many smooth actions of discrete groups exhibit local rigidity. The author studies an analog of the Baumslag-Solitar group \(\mathrm{BS}(1,k)\), which naturally acts on the sphere by conformal transformations: he proves that the action is not locally rigid in higher dimensions, but any perturbation preserves a smooth conformal structure.
