In this paper, we establish a quantitative correspondence between power quasi-symmetric mappings on complete metric spaces and rough quasi-isometric mappings on their hyperbolic fillings. In particular, we prove that the exponents in the…

We prove that if a proper metric space is quasi-isometric to a finitely generated group and to a space with a horoball over a finitely generated group, then that space is quasi-isometric to a rank-one symmetric space or the real line.

We present a quantitative version of Guessing Geodesics, which is a well-known theorem that provides a set of conditions to prove hyperbolicity of a given metric space. This version adds to the existing result by determining an explicit…

Given a pants decomposition $\mathcal{PC} = \{\gamma_1, \ldots, \gamma_{\xi}\}$ on a hyperbolizable surface $\Sigma$ and a vector $\underline{c} = (c_1, \ldots, c_{\xi}) \in \mathbb{R}_+^\xi$, we describe a plumbing construction which…

We show the equivalence of several characterizations of relative hyperbolicity for metric spaces, and obtain extra information about geodesics in a relatively hyperbolic space. We apply this to characterize hyperbolically embedded subgroups…

We show that a geodesic metric space is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov if and only if intersections of balls have bounded eccentricity. In particular, $\R$-trees are characterized among geodesic metric spaces by the property that the…

The relation between negatively curved spaces and their boundaries is important for various rigidity problems. In \cite{biswas2024quasi}, the class of Gromov hyperbolic spaces called maximal Gromov hyperbolic spaces was introduced, and the…

Sublinearly Morse boundaries of proper geodesic spaces are introduced by Qing, Rafi and Tiozzo. Expanding on this work, Qing and Rafi recently developed the quasi-redirecting boundary, denoted $\partial G$, to include all directions of…

For a proper geodesic metric space $X$, the Morse boundary $\partial_*X$ focuses on the hyperbolic-like directions in the space $X$. It is a quasi-isometry invariant. That is, a quasi-isometry between two hyperbolic spaces induces a…

We describe a higher dimensional analogue of the Stallings folding sequence for group actions on CAT(0) cube complexes. We use it to give a characterization of quasiconvex subgroups of hyperbolic groups which act properly co-compactly on…

We study the Lipschitz metric on Outer Space and prove that fully irreducible elements of Out(F_n) act by hyperbolic isometries with axes which are strongly contracting. As a corollary, we prove that the axes of fully irreducible…

This paper studies the dynamics of isometries in the curtain model, which is used to capture the hyperbolicity in a fixed CAT(0) space. We establish several fundamental properties, fully classify the behavior of semisimple isometries of a…

We construct a Cayley graph $\mathbf{Cay}_S(\Gamma)$ of a hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ such that there are elements $g,h\in\Gamma$ and a point $\gamma \in \partial_\infty\Gamma = \partial_\infty\mathbf{Cay}_S(\Gamma)$ such that the sets…

Petyt-Spriano-Zalloum recently developed the notion of a \textit{curtain model}, which is a hyperbolic space associated to any CAT(0) space. It plays a similar role for CAT(0) spaces that curve graphs do for mapping class groups of…

We show that the translation length of any parabolic isometry on a complete semi-uniformly visible CAT(0) space is always zero. As a consequence, we will classify the isometries on visible CAT(0) spaces in terms of translation lengths. We…

The 'contracting boundary' of a proper geodesic metric space consists of equivalence classes of geodesic rays that behave like rays in a hyperbolic space. We introduce a geometrically relevant, quasi-isometry invariant topology on the…
