Quasi-Isometries, Boundaries and JSJ-Decompositions of Relatively Hyperbolic Groups

Group Theory 2013-08-22 v3

Abstract

We demonstrate the quasi-isometry invariance of two important geometric structures for relatively hyperbolic groups: the coned space and the cusped space. As applications, we produce a JSJ-decomposition for relatively hyperbolic groups which is invariant under quasi-isometries and outer automorphisms, as well as a related splitting of the quasi-isometry groups of relatively hyperbolic groups.
