Abstract

Previously one of the authors constructed uncountable families of groups of type FPFP and of nn-dimensional Poincar\'e duality groups for each n4n\geq 4. We strengthen these results by showing that these groups comprise uncountably many quasi-isometry classes. We deduce that for each n4n\geq 4 there are uncountably many quasi-isometry classes of acyclic nn-manifolds admitting free cocompact properly discontinuous discrete group actions.
