This paper is a survey of some of the developments in coarse extrinsic geometry since its inception in the work of Gromov. Distortion, as measured by comparing the diameter of balls relative to different metrics, can be regarded as one of…
We propose an axiomatic characterization of coarse homology theories defined on the category of bornological coarse spaces. We construct a category of motivic coarse spectra. Our focus is the classification of coarse homology theories and…
We prove the equivalence between a relative bottleneck property and being quasi-isometric to a tree-graded space. As a consequence, we deduce that the quasi-trees of spaces defined axiomatically by Bestvina-Bromberg-Fujiwara are…
This paper is devoted to study of transformations on metric spaces. It is done in an effort to produce qualitative version of quasi-isometries which takes into account the asymptotic behavior of the Gromov product in hyperbolic spaces. We…
This is an expository survey with two goals. 1) The primary goal is to discuss and highlight the impact of two recent influential ideas in geometric group theory. The first of which is the notion of an injective metric space which is a rich…
Suppose $G$ is a finite group and $A\subseteq G$ is such that $\{gA:g\in G\}$ has VC-dimension strictly less than $k$. We find algebraically well-structured sets in $G$ which, up to a chosen $\epsilon>0$, describe the structure of $A$ and…
In this paper, we introduce a Grothendieck topology on the category of totally bounded metric spaces and develop a theory of stacks with respect to this topology. We further define the fine moduli stack of compact metric spaces and prove…
We consider L-infinity quasi-isomorphisms for Hochschild cochains whose structure maps admit "graphical expansion". We introduce the notion of stable formality quasi-isomorphism which formalizes such an L-infinity quasi-isomorphism. We…
We define a notion of a rotund quasi-uniform space and describe a new direct construction of a (right-continuous) quasi-pseudometric on a (rotund) quasi-uniform space. This new construction allows to give alternative proofs of several…
We introduce a notion of cocycle-induction for strong uniform approximate lattices in locally compact second countable groups and use it to relate (relative) Kazhdan- and Haagerup-type of approximate lattices to the corresponding properties…
The $K$-theory of the stable Higson corona of a coarse space carries a canonical ring structure. This ring is the domain of an unreduced version of the coarse co-assembly map of Emerson and Meyer. We show that the target also carries a ring…
We define metrics in space that are natural counterparts of the hyperbolic metric in plane domains, using the characterization of the hyperbolic metric due to Beardon and Pommerenke. We obtain inequalities for these metrics under…
In this paper we provide several \emph{metric universality} results. We exhibit for certain classes $\cC$ of metric spaces, families of metric spaces $(M_i, d_i)_{i\in I}$ which have the property that a metric space $(X,d_X)$ in $\cC$ is…
A coarse compactification of a proper metric space $X$ is any compactification of $X$ that is dominated by its Higson compactification. In this paper we describe the maximal coarse compactification of $X$ whose corona is of dimension $0$.…
This is an expository article on visual metrics on boundaries of hyperbolic metric spaces. We discuss the construction of visual metrics, quasisymmetries and their invariants, Hausdorff and conformal dimension, and constructions and…
For a group $G$, we denote by $\stackrel{\leftrightarrow}{G}$ the coarse space on $G$ endowed with the coarse structure with the base $\{\{ (x,y)\in G\times G: y\in x^F \} : F \in [G]^{<\omega} \}$, $x^F = \{z^{-1} xz : z\in F \}$. Our goal…
A version of group cohomology for locally compact groups and Polish modules has previously been developed using a bar resolution restricted to measurable cochains. That theory was shown to enjoy analogs of most of the standard algebraic…
We prove that uniformly locally finite metric spaces with isomorphic Roe algebras must be coarsely equivalent. As an application, we also prove that the outer automorphism group of the Roe algebra of a metric space of bounded geometry is…
We give simple examples of Kazhdan groups with infinite outer automorphism groups. This answers a question of Paulin, independently answered by Ollivier and Wise by completely different methods. As arithmetic lattices in (non-semisimple)…
Motivated by questions in geometric group theory we define a quasisymmetric co-Hopfian property for metric spaces and provide an example of a metric Sierpi\'nski carpet with this property. As an application we obtain a quasi-isometrically…
