Between the category of exact metric spaces with bounded geometry (about which much is known) and the larger category of arbitrary exact metric spaces (about which little is known) lies the intermediate category of asymptotically exact…
In this paper, we use geometric tools to study the structure of asymptotic expanders and show that a sequence of asymptotic expanders always admits a "uniform exhaustion by expanders". It follows that asymptotic expanders cannot be coarsely…
In this paper we use free iterated actions and the iterated discrete degree of symmetry to obtain rigidity results on aspherical manifolds. We also introduce the concept of the length of an iterated action and we study it for nilmanifolds,…
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 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…
We prove large (and moderate) deviations for a class of linear combinations of spacings generated by i.i.d. exponentially distributed random variables. We allow a wide class of coefficients which can be expressed in terms of continuous…
We show how a recent result of Hrushovsky implies that if an asymptotic cone of a finitely generated group is locally compact, then the group is virtually nilpotent.
Inspired by a remarkable work of F\'{e}lix, Halperin and Thomas on the asymptotic estimation of the ranks of rational homotopy groups, and more recent works of Wu and the authors on local hyperbolicity, we prove two asymptotic formulae for…
It is well known that the Tits boundary of a proper cocompact CAT(0) space embeds into every asymptotic cone of the space. We explore the relationships between the asymptotic cones of a CAT(0) space and its boundary under both the standard…
We further study averaged and firmly nonexpansive mappings in the setting of geodesic spaces with a main focus on the asymptotic behavior of their Picard iterates. We use methods of proof mining to obtain an explicit quantitative version of…
We define a notion of asymptotically spherical topological groups, which says that spheres of large radius with respect to any maximal length function are still spherical with respect to any other maximal length function. This is a…
In this paper, we study exponential random graph models subject to certain constraints. We obtain some general results about the asymptotic structure of the model. We show that there exists non-trivial regions in the phase plane where the…
We study the moduli space for an arbitrary number of BPS monopoles in a gauge theory with an arbitrary gauge group that is maximally broken to $U(1)^k$. From the low energy dynamics of well-separated dyons we infer the asymptotic form of…
An iterative map of the unit disc in the complex plane (Appendix) is used to explore certain aspects of selfdual, four dimensional gauge fields (quasi)periodic in the Euclidean time. These fields are characterized by two topological numbers…
We define cone structures and asymptotic invariants for multigraded systems of ideals, and show that essentially the only restrictions on such structures is convexity, which is imposed formally.
We construct uncountably many finitely generated, pairwise non-isomorphic torsion-free groups, all of which fall into the same quasi-isometry class. This is done by considering Schur covering groups and group cohomology, with the necessary…
We investigate asymptotically flat manifolds with cone structure at infinity. We show that any such manifold M has a finite number of ends. For simply connected ends we classify all possible cones at infinity, except for the 4-dimensional…
We consider positive entropy $G$-systems for certain countable, discrete, infinite left-orderable amenable groups $G$. By undertaking local analysis, the existence of asymptotic pairs and chaotic sets will be studied in connecting with the…
We produce examples of complex algebraic surfaces with isolated singularities such that these singularities are not metrically conic, i.e. the germs of the surfaces near singular points are not bi-Lipschitz equivalent, with respect to the…
We consider groups $\mathbb{I}$ of isometries of ultrametric Urysohn spaces $\mathbb{U}$. Such spaces $\mathbb{U}$ admit transparent realizations as boundaries of certain $R$-trees and the groups $\mathbb{I}$ are groups of automorphisms of…
