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…

In this note, we present examples of non-quasi-geodesic metric spaces which are hyperbolic (i.e., satisfying the Gromov's $4$-point condition) while the intersection of any two metric balls therein does not either "look like" a ball or has…

In this note we study the limiting behaviour of real valued functions on hyperbolic groups as we travel along typical geodesic rays in the Gromov boundary of the group. Our results apply to group homomorphisms, certain quasimorphisms and to…

We show exact dimensionality of harmonic measures associated with random walks on groups acting on a hyperbolic space under finite first moment condition, and establish the dimension formula by the entropy over the drift. We also treat the…

The concept of Gromov hyperbolicity manifests itself in many different ways. With only mild assumptions on the underlying metric space, the spectrum of equivalent properties includes various thin triangle conditions, the stability of…

In this paper, we show that, if a group $G$ acts geometrically on a geodesically complete CAT(0) space $X$ which contains at least one point with a CAT(-1) neighborhood, then $G$ must be either virtually cyclic or acylindrically hyperbolic.…

We investigate a coarse version of a $2(n+1)$-point inequality characterizing metric spaces of combinatorial dimension at most $n$ due to Dress. This condition, experimentally called $(n,\delta)$-hyperbolicity, reduces to Gromov's quadruple…

Let $(M, \partial M)$ be a compact 3-manifold with boundary, which admits a convex co-compact hyperbolic metric. We consider the hyperbolic metrics on $M$ such that the boundary is smooth and strictly convex. We show that the induced…

Given a geodesic metric space $X$, we construct a corresponding hyperbolic space, which we call the contraction space, that detects all strongly contracting directions in the following sense; a geodesic in $X$ is strongly contracting if and…

We show that a quasi-geodesic in an injective metric space is Morse if and only if it is strongly contracting. Since mapping class groups and, more generally, hierarchically hyperbolic groups act properly and coboundedly on injective metric…

We prove an inequality concerning isometries of a Gromov hyperbolic metric space, which does not require the space to be proper or geodesic. It involves the joint stable length, a hyperbolic version of the joint spectral radius, and shows…

In this paper we introduce a notion of the Gromov-Hausdorff distance with boundary, denoted by $d_{GHB}$, to construct a framework of convergence of noncomplete metric spaces. We show that a class of bounded $A$-uniform spaces with diameter…

We derive geometric formulas for the mass of asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds using coordinate horospheres. As an application, we obtain a new rigidity result of hyperbolic space: if a complete asymptotically hyperbolic manifold has…

In this paper we investigate the Gromov hyperbolicity of the classical Kobayashi and Hilbert metrics, and the recently introduced minimal metric. Using the linear isoperimetric inequality characterization of Gromov hyperbolicity, we show if…

Although the hyperbolic metric possesses many remarkable properties, it is not defined on arbitrary subdomains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $n \geq 2$. This article introduces a new hyperbolic-type metric that provides an alternative approach to…

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…

We establish three criteria of hyperbolicity of a graph in terms of ``average width of geodesic bigons''. In particular we prove that if the ratio of the Van Kampen area of a geodesic bigon $\beta$ and the length of $\beta$ in the Cayley…
