We refine Feighn--Handel's results on subgroups of mapping tori of free groups to the special case of free-by-cyclic groups. We use these refinements to show that any finitely generated free-by-cyclic group embeds in a {finitely generated…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the homotopy groups of simply connected finite $p$-local complexes, and define a space to be locally hyperbolic if its homotopy groups have exponential growth. Under some certain conditions related to the…

Let $\Phi:F\rightarrow F$ be an automorphism of the finite-rank free group $F$. Suppose that $G=F\rtimes_\Phi\mathbb Z$ is word-hyperbolic. Then $G$ acts freely and cocompactly on a CAT(0) cube complex.

We look at isometric actions on arbitrary hyperbolic spaces of generalised Baumslag - Solitar groups of arbitrary dimension (the rank of the free abelian vertex and edge subgroups). It is known that being a hierarchically hyperbolic group…

The following discourse is inspired by the works on hyperbolic groups of Epstein, and Neumann/Reeves. Epstein showed that geometrically finite hyperbolic groups are biautomatic. Neumann/Reeves showed that virtually central extensions of…

We study large uniform random maps with one face whose genus grows linearly with the number of edges. They can be seen as a model of discrete hyperbolic geometry. In the past, several of these hyperbolic geometric features have been…

Suppose that a finitely generated group $G$ is hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups $\{H_1, ..., H_m\} $. We prove that if each of the subgroups $H_1, ..., H_m$ has finite asymptotic dimension, then asymptotic dimension of $G$…

We investigate unbounded domains in hierarchically hyperbolic groups and obtain constraints on the possible hierarchical structures. Using these insights, we characterise the structures of virtually abelian HHGs and show that the class of…

We provide a general sufficient condition for extendability of quasimorphisms on subgroups. This condition recovers the result of Hull--Osin on quasimorphisms on hyperbolically embedded subgroups, and the proof given in this paper is much…

If G is a group with a presentation of the form < x,y|x^3=y^3=W(x,y)^2=1 >, then either G is virtually soluble or G contains a free subgroup of rank 2. This provides additional evidence in favour of a conjecture of Rosenberger.

For any finite collection $f_i$ of fully irreducible automorphisms of the free group $F_n$ we construct a connected $\delta$-hyperbolic $Out(F_n)$-complex in which each $f_i$ has positive translation length.

We introduce the notion of finite stature of a family $\{H_i\}$ of subgroups of a group $G$. We investigate the separability of subgroups of a group $G$ that splits as a graph of hyperbolic special groups with quasiconvex edge groups. We…

We prove that the group of outer automorphisms of the free Coxeter group $W_n$ is acylindrically hyperbolic in the sense of Osin. As an application, we observe that any CAT(0) space admitting a geometric action by Out($W_n$) must contain a…

We consider models of random groups in which the typical group is of intermediate rank (in particular, it is not hyperbolic). These models are parallel to M. Gromov's well-known constructions and include for example a "density model" for…

Stallings remarked that an outer automorphism of a free group may be thought of as a subdivision of a graph followed by a sequence of folds. In this thesis, we prove that automorphisms of fundamental groups of graphs of groups satisfying…

Let $M =\mathbb{H}^3/\Gamma$ be a finite-volume, noncompact hyperbolic 3-manifold. We show that the number of quasi-Fuchsian surface subgroups of $\Gamma$ (up to conjugacy and commensurability) of genus at most $g$ is bounded both above and…
