The Morse boundary of a proper geodesic metric space is designed to encode hypberbolic-like behavior in the space. A key property of this boundary is that a quasi-isometry between two such spaces induces a homeomorphism on their Morse…

In this paper we prove a general structure theorem for relatively hyperbolic groups (with arbitrary peripheral subgroups) acting naive convex co-compactly on properly convex domains in real projective space. We also establish a…

The Boone--Higman conjecture is that every recursively presented group with solvable word problem embeds in a finitely presented simple group. We discuss a brief history of this conjecture and work towards it. Along the way we describe some…

We give a criterion in terms of the boundary for the existence of a proper cocompact action of a word-hyperbolic group on a CAT(0) cube complex. We describe applications towards lattices and hyperbolic 3-manifold groups. In particular, by…

We study the general theory of asymptotically CAT(0) groups, explaining why such a group has finitely many conjugacy classes of finite subgroups, is $F_\infty$ and has solvable word problem. We provide techniques to combine asymptotically…

We show that if G is an admissible group acting geometrically on a CAT(0) space X, then G is a hierarchically hyperbolic space and with mild assumptions the sublinearly-Morse boundary of the group is a topological model for associated…

For a given group $G$, it is natural to ask whether one can classify all isometric $G$-actions on Gromov hyperbolic spaces. We propose a formalization of this problem utilizing the complexity theory of Borel equivalence relations. In this…

We survey the known results regarding the boundaries of word-hyperbolic groups.

This is the second in a series of papers about torsion-free groups which act properly and cocompactly on a CAT(0) metric space with isolated flats and relatively thin triangles. Our approach is to adapt the methods of Sela and others for…

For a fixed word hyperbolic group we compare different residual properties related to quasiconvex subgroups.

The 1973 Boone-Higman conjecture predicts that every finitely generated group with solvable word problem embeds in a finitely presented simple group. In this paper, we show that hyperbolic groups satisfy this conjecture, that is, each…

In this article, we prove a combination theorem for a complex of relatively hyperbolic groups. It is a generalization of Martin's \cite{martin} work for combination of hyperbolic groups over a finite $M_K$-simplicial complex, where $k\leq…

We prove that an IRS of a group with a geometrically dense action on a CAT(0) space also acts geometrically densely; assuming the space is either of finite telescopic dimension or locally compact with finite dimensional Tits boundary. This…

We study the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture for product spaces and product groups. We show that a product of CAT(0) groups, polycyclic groups and relatively hyperbolic groups which satisfy some assumptions on peripheral subgroups, satisfies…

We prove a homological stability theorem for congruence subgroups of symplectic groups. From this theorem, we deduce a generalization of a theorem of Borel showing that certain homology groups of a congruence subgroup do not depend on the…

We prove the fibred Farrell--Jones Conjecture (FJC) in $A$-, $K$-, and $L$-theory for a large class of suspensions of relatively hyperbolic groups, as well as for all suspensions of one-ended hyperbolic groups. We deduce two applications:…

The question which motivates the article is the following: given a group acting on a CAT(0) cube complex, how can we prove that it is acylindrically hyperbolic? Keeping this goal in mind, we show a weak acylindricity of the action on the…

Given isometric actions by a group G on finitely many \delta-hyperbolic metric spaces, we provide a sufficient condition that guarantees the existence of a single element in G that is hyperbolic for each action. As an application we prove a…

Let $V$ be a finite graph and let $\phi:V\rightarrow V$ be an irreducible train track map whose mapping torus has word-hyperbolic fundamental group $G$. Then $G$ acts freely and cocompactly on a CAT(0) cube complex.

We give a combinatorial criterion that implies both the non-strong relative hyperbolicity and the one-endedness of a finitely generated group. We use this to show that many important classes of groups do not admit a strong relatively…
