We show that any universal quasigeodesic cone of uniformly coarse median spaces admits a canonical coarse median structure. As an application, we recover a result of Bowditch which states that any hierarchically hyperbolic space admits a…

We show that any product of bushy hyperbolic spaces has a unique coarse median structure, and that having a unique coarse median structure is a property closed under relative hyperbolicity. As a consequence, in contrast with the case of…

This paper establishes a new combinatorial framework for the study of coarse median spaces, bridging the worlds of asymptotic geometry, algebra and combinatorics. We introduce a simple and entirely algebraic notion of coarse median algebra…

The main goal of this paper is a detailed study of asymptotic cones of the mapping class groups. In particular, we prove that every asymptotic cone of a mapping class group has a bi-Lipschitz equivariant embedding into a product of real…

Sofic groups generalise both residually finite and amenable groups, and the concept is central to many important results and conjectures in measured group theory. We introduce a topological notion of a sofic boundary attached to a given…

Coarse median spaces simultaneously generalise the classes of hyperbolic spaces and median algebras, and arise naturally in the study of the mapping class groups and many other contexts. One issue with their definition as originally…

We show that many graphs naturally associated to a connected, compact, orientable surface are hierarchically hyperbolic spaces in the sense of Behrstock, Hagen and Sisto. They also automatically have the coarse median property defined by…

F. Paulin proved that if the Gromov boundaries of two hyperbolic groups are quasi-Mobius equivalent, then the groups themselves are quasi-isometric. The goal of this article is to extend Paulin's result to the setting of relatively…

We prove a generalization of the fellow traveller property for a certain type of quasi-geodesics and use it to present three equivalent geometric formulations of the bounded reduction property and prove that it is equivalent to preservation…

Coarse geometry is the study of large-scale properties of spaces. In this paper we study group coarse structures (i.e., coarse structures on groups that agree with the algebraic structures), by using group ideals. We introduce a large class…

Inspired by group cohomology, we define several coarse topological invariants of metric spaces. We define the coarse cohomological dimension of a metric space, and demonstrate that if G is a countable group, then the coarse cohomological…

We give upper and lower bounds on the conformal dimension of the Bowditch boundary of a Coxeter group with defining graph a complete graph and edge labels at least three. The lower bounds are obtained by quasi-isometrically embedding…

In this monograph we lay the foundation for a theory of coarse groups and coarse actions. Coarse groups are group objects in the category of coarse spaces, and can be thought of as sets with operations that satisfy the group axioms "up to…

We define coarse proximity structures, which are an analog of small-scale proximity spaces in the large-scale context. We show that metric spaces induce coarse proximity structures, and we construct a natural small-scale proximity…

We show that uniform lattices of isometries of products of real hyperbolic spaces act properly discontinuously and cocompactly on a median space. For lattices in products of at least two factors, this is the strongest degree of…

Classifying groups up to quasi-isometry is a fundamental problem in geometric group theory. In the context of hyperbolic and relatively hyperbolic groups, one of the key invariants in this classification is the boundary at infinity. F.…

We show that for many right-angled Artin and Coxeter groups, all cocompact cubulations coarsely look the same: they induce the same coarse median structure on the group. These are the first examples of non-hyperbolic groups with this…

We prove that uniformly locally finite quasigeodesic coarse median spaces of finite rank and at most exponential growth have Property A. This offers an alternative proof of the fact that mapping class groups have property A.
