We study the cohomology of group theoretic Dehn fillings. Applying the Cohen-Lyndon property for sufficiently deep Dehn fillings of hyperbolically embedded subgroups $H\hookrightarrow_h G$, obtained by the second named author, we derive a…

We introduce a class of metric spaces which we call "bolic". They include hyperbolic spaces, simply conneccted complete manifolds of nonpositive curvature, euclidean buildings, etc. We prove the Novikov conjecture on higher signatures for…

We study the subgroup structure of discrete groups which share cohomological properties which resemble non-negative curvature. Examples include all Gromov hyperbolic groups. We provide strong restrictions on the possible s-normal subgroups…

We show that properties $F_n$ and $FP_n$ hold for a relatively hyperbolic group if and only if they hold for all the peripheral subgroups. As an application we show that there are at least countably many distinct quasi-isometry classes of…

How rich is the collection of groups with a given prominent property? In this work we approach this question for property~$R_\infty$, which says that every automorphism $\varphi$ of a given group has infinitely many orbits under the…

As a consequence of Kirchberg's work, Connes' Embedding Conjecture is equivalent to the property that every homomorphism of the group $F_\infty\times F_\infty$ into the unitary group $U(\ell^2)$ with the strong topology is pointwise…

Group cohomology of polynomial growth is defined for any finitely generated discrete group, using cochains that have polynomial growth with respect to the word length function. We give a geometric condition that guarantees that it agrees…

We prove an isoperimetric inequality for groups. As an application, we obtain lower bound on F{\o}lner functions in various nilpotent-by-cyclic groups. Under a regularity assumption, we obtain a characterization of F{\o}lner functions of…

A symplectic form is called hyperbolic if its pull-back to the universal cover is a differential of a bounded one-form. The present paper is concerned with the properties and constructions of manifolds admitting hyperbolic symplectic forms.…

Consider a finitely generated group $G$ that is relatively hyperbolic with respect to a family of subgroups $H_1, ..., H_n$. We present an axiomatic approach to the problem of extending metric properties from the subgroups $H_i$ to the full…

We generalize a result of Paulin on the Gromov boundary of hyperbolic groups to the Morse boundary of proper, maximal hierarchically hyperbolic spaces admitting cocompact group actions by isometries. Namely we show that if the Morse…

Assuming that every hyperbolic group is residually finite, we prove the congruence subgroup property for mapping class groups of hyperbolic surfaces of finite type. Under the same assumption, it follows that profinitely equivalent…

We prove that a finitely generated group $G$ hyperbolic relative to the collection of finitely generated subgroups H_1,..., H_m has the Rapid Decay property if and only if each H_i, i=1,2,..., m, has the Rapid Decay property.

We study a group which is hyperbolic relative to a finite family of infinite subgroups. We show that the group satisfies the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture if each subgroup belonging to the family satisfies the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture…

We establish new results on the weak containment of quasi-regular and Koopman representations of a second countable locally compact group $G$ associated with non-singular $G$-spaces. We deduce that any two boundary representations of a…

We give a unified proof of property $R_\infty$ for the Higman groups $H_n$ ($n\ge 4$) and for their generalizations studied by Martin and Horbez--Huang. As a key step, we prove that the automorphism groups of these groups are acylindrically…

Gromov Hyperbolic groups have remarkable finiteness properties;for example those that are torsion-free are fundamental groups of finitecomplexes whose universal cover iscontractible (property~$F$). In this talk we will show thattheir…

We study Chern characters and the assembly mapping for free actions using the framework of geometric $K$-homology. The focus is on the relative groups associated with a group homomorphism $\phi:\Gamma_1\to \Gamma_2$ along with applications…

For a given orthonormal basis $(f_n)$ on a probability measure space, we want to describe all Markov operators which have the $f_n$ as eigenvectors. We introduce for that what we call the hypergroup property. We study this property in three…

We revisit Gersten's $\ell^\infty$-cohomology of groups and spaces, removing the finiteness assumptions required by the original definition while retaining its geometric nature. Mirroring the corresponding results in bounded cohomology, we…
