We study coordinate-invariance of some asymptotic invariants such as the ADM mass or the Chru\'sciel-Herzlich momentum, given by an integral over a "boundary at infinity". When changing the coordinates at infinity, some terms in the change…

This is the third paper in a series in which we prove Thurston's conjectural duality between best Lipschitz maps and transverse measures. In the second paper we found a special class of best Lipschitz maps between hyperbolic surfaces…

The landslide flow, introduced in [5], is a smoother analog of the earthquake flow on Teichm\"uller space which shares some of its key properties. We show here that further properties of earthquakes apply to landslides. The landslide flow…

A sequence of distinct closed surfaces in a hyperbolic 3-manifold M is asymptotically geodesic if their principal curvatures tend uniformly to zero. When M has finite volume, we show such sequences are always asymptotically dense in the…

We find an upper bound for the asymptotic dimension of a hyperbolic metric space with a set of geodesics satisfying a certain boundedness condition studied by Bowditch. The primary example is a collection of tight geodesics on the curve…

In his paper Minimal stretch maps between hyperbolic surfaces, William Thurston defined a norm on the tangent space to Teichm{\"u}ller space of a hyperbolic surface, which he called the earthquake norm. This norm is obtained by assigning a…

We show that for every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a compact lamination by $\epsilon$-holomorphic surfaces in the complex projective plane, minimal, and that carries hyperbolic holonomy. We call $\epsilon$-holomorphic a real 2-dimensional…

The existence of a smooth complete strictly locally convex hypersurface with prescribed scalar curvature and asymptotic boundary at infinity in $\mathbb{H}^{3}$ is proved under the assumption that there exists a strictly locally convex…

In the first part of this work we explore the geometry of infinite type surfaces and the relationship between its convex core and space of ends. In particular, we show that a geodesically complete hyperbolic surface is made up of its convex…

We compare some natural triangulations of the Teichm\"uller space of hyperbolic surfaces with geodesic boundary and of some bordifications. We adapt Scannell-Wolf's proof to show that grafting semi-infinite cylinders at the ends of…

This paper considers asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds with a finite boundary intersecting the usual infinite boundary -- cornered asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds -- and proves a theorem of Cartan-Hadamard type near infinity for the…

We obtain general results on the dynamics of exactly conical geometries, where we use the notion of boundaries at infinity to characterize asymptotic behavior. As we demonstrate in examples, these notions also apply to smooth geometries…

We prove that any continuous vector field on a circle is the extension in a suitable sense, of a unique infinitesimal earthquake of the hyperbolic plane. Furthermore, we obtain other extension results when the vector field is assumed only…

In this paper we study the relationship between the homology and homotopy of a space at infinity and at its boundary. Firstly, we prove that if a locally connected, connected, $\delta$-hyperbolic space that is acted upon geometrically by a…

We show that if an asymptotically flat manifold with horizon boundary admits a global static potential, then the static potential must be zero on the boundary. We also show that if an asymptotically flat manifold with horizon boundary…
