Studying geodesics in Cayley graphs of groups has been a very active area of research over the last decades. We introduce the notion of a uniquely labelled geodesic, abbreviated with u.l.g. These will be studied first in finite Coxeter…

This paper is about geometric and topological properties of a proper CAT(0) space $X$ which is cocompact - i.e. which has a compact generating domain with respect to the full isometry group. It is shown that geodesic segments in $X$ can…

We characterise hyperbolic groups in terms of quasigeodesics in the Cayley graph forming regular languages. We also obtain a quantitative characterisation of hyperbolicity of geodesic metric spaces by the non-existence of certain local…

A connected undirected graph is called \emph{geodetic} if for every pair of vertices there is a unique shortest path connecting them. It has been conjectured that for finite groups, the only geodetic Cayley graphs are odd cycles and…

We generalize [Vav] to give sufficient conditions, primarily on coarse geometry, to ensure that a subset of a Cayley graph is a finite Hausdorff distance from a subgroup. Using this result, we prove a partial converse to the Flat Torus…

A connected graph is called \emph{geodetic} if there is a unique geodesic between each pair of vertices. In this paper we prove that if a finitely generated group admits a Cayley graph which is geodetic, then the group must be virtually…

We call a graph $k$-geodetic, for some $k\geq 1$, if it is connected and between any two vertices there are at most $k$ geodesics. It is shown that any hyperbolic group with a $k$-geodetic Cayley graph is virtually-free. Furthermore, in…

In this paper, we study CAT(0) groups and Coxeter groups whose boundaries are scrambled sets. Suppose that a group $G$ acts geometrically (i.e. properly and cocompactly by isometries) on a CAT(0) space $X$. (Such group $G$ is called a {\it…

We establish quasi-isometric rigidity for a class of right-angled Coxeter groups. Let $\Gamma_1,\Gamma_2$ be joins of finite generalized thick $m$-gons with $m\geq 3$. We show that the corresponding right-angled Coxeter groups are…

Suppose that $X$ is an infinite, connected, locally finite, quasi-transitive graph with the property that every bi-infinite quasi-geodesic uniformly coarsely separates $X$ into exactly two deep pieces. We show that such an $X$ is…

In this paper, we investigate an equivariant homeomorphism of the boundaries $\partial X$ and $\partial Y$ of two proper CAT(0) spaces $X$ and $Y$ on which a CAT(0) group $G$ acts geometrically. We provide a sufficient condition and an…

We provide conditions on the defining graph of a right-angled Coxeter group presentation that guarantees the boundary of any CAT(0) space on which the group acts geometrically will be locally connected. This is a revised version of a…

In this paper, we study random walks on groups that contain superlinear divergent geodesics, in the line of thoughts of Goldsborough-Sisto. The existence of a superlinear divergent geodesic is a quasi-isometry invariant which allows us to…

We consider the class of those Coxeter groups for which removing from the Cayley graph any tubular neighbourhood of any wall leaves exactly two connected components. We call these Coxeter groups bipolar. They include both the virtually…

A quasi-tree is a geodesic metric space quasi-isometric to a tree. We give a general construction of many actions of groups on quasi-trees. The groups we can handle include non-elementary (relatively) hyperbolic groups, rank 1 CAT(0)…
