We prove the Borel Conjecture for a class of groups containing word-hyperbolic groups and groups acting properly, isometrically and cocompactly on a finite dimensional CAT(0)-space.

Let X be a locally compact geodesically complete CAT(0) space and G be a discrete group acting properly and cocompactly on X. We show that G contains an element acting as a hyperbolic isometry on each indecomposable de Rham factor of X. It…

This article is dedicated to the characterisation of the relative hyperbolicity of Haglund and Wise's special groups. More precise, we introduce a new combinatorial formalism to study (virtually) special groups, and we prove that, given a…

We show that any filtering family of closed convex subsets of a finite-dimensional CAT(0) space $X$ has a non-empty intersection in the visual bordification $ \bar{X} = X \cup \partial X$. Using this fact, several results known for proper…

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…

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…

In this expository note, we illustrate phenomena and conjectures about boundaries of hyperbolic groups by considering the special cases of certain amalgams of hyperbolic groups. While doing so, we describe fundamental results on hyperbolic…

We introduce a new kind of action of a relatively hyperbolic group on a CAT(0) cube complex, called a relatively geometric action. We provide an application to characterize finite-volume Kleinian groups in terms of action on cube complexes,…

We prove that for every finitely generated hyperbolic group $G$, the action of $G$ on its Gromov boundary induces a hyperfinite equivalence relation.

We use our new type of bounded locally homeomorphic quasiregular mappings in the unit 3-ball to address long standing problems for such mappings. The construction of such mappings comes from our construction of non-trivial compact…

The aim of this short note is to provide a proof of the decidability of the generalized membership problem for relatively quasi-convex subgroups of finitely presented relatively hyperbolic groups, under some reasonably mild conditions on…

Let (X_i,d_i), i=1,2, be proper geodesic hyperbolic metric spaces. We give a general construction for a ``hyperbolic product'' X_1{times}_h X_2 which is itself a proper geodesic hyperbolic metric space and examine its boundary at infinity.

We prove a general criterion for a metric space to have conformal dimension one. The conditions are stated in terms of the existence of enough local cut points in the space. We then apply this criterion to the boundaries of hyperbolic…

Let G be a graph of hyperbolic groups with 2-ended edge groups. We show that G is hierarchically hyperbolic if and only if G has no distorted infinite cyclic subgroup. More precisely, we show that G is hierarchically hyperbolic if and only…

We give a concrete description for the boundary of the central quadratic hyperbolic component. The connectedness of the Julia sets of the boundary maps are also considered.

In this paper, we study dense subsets of boundaries of CAT(0) groups. Suppose that a group $G$ acts geometrically on a CAT(0) space $X$ and suppose that there exists an element $g_0\in G$ such that (1) $Z_{g_0}$ is finite, (2) $X\setminus…

Given any countable group $G$, we construct uncountably many quasi-isometry classes of proper geodesic metric spaces with quasi-isometry group isomorphic to $G$. Moreover, if the group $G$ is a hyperbolic group, the spaces we construct are…
