Circumcenter extension of Moebius maps to CAT(-1) spaces

Differential Geometry 2017-10-12 v2

Abstract

Given a Moebius homeomorphism f:XYf : \partial X \to \partial Y between boundaries of proper, geodesically complete CAT(-1) spaces X,YX,Y, we describe an extension f^:XY\hat{f} : X \to Y of ff, called the circumcenter map of ff, which is constructed using circumcenters of expanding sets. The extension f^\hat{f} is shown to coincide with the (1,log2)(1, \log 2)-quasi-isometric extension constructed in [biswas3], and is locally 1/21/2-Holder continuous. When X,YX,Y are complete, simply connected manifolds with sectional curvatures KK satisfying b2K1-b^2 \leq K \leq -1 for some b1b \geq 1 then the extension f^:XY\hat{f} : X \to Y is a (1,(11b)log2)(1, (1 - \frac{1}{b})\log 2)-quasi-isometry. Circumcenter extension of Moebius maps is natural with respect to composition with isometries.
