Let $G$ be a hyperbolic group that splits as a graph of free groups with cyclic edge groups, and which is not isomorphic to a free product of free and surface groups. We show that $G$ admits an exhausting, nested sequence of finite-index…

We prove that certain classes of metrically homogeneous graphs omitting triangles of odd short perimeter as well as triangles of long perimeter have the extension property for partial automorphisms and we describe their Ramsey expansions.

Coboundary and cosystolic expansion are notions of expansion that generalize the Cheeger constant or edge expansion of a graph to higher dimensions. The classical Cheeger inequality implies that for graphs edge expansion is equivalent to…

Highly connected and yet sparse graphs (such as expanders or graphs of high treewidth) are fundamental, widely applicable and extensively studied combinatorial objects. We initiate the study of such highly connected graphs that are, in…

It has been shown by various authors under different assumptions that the diameter of a bounded non-trivial set $\gamma$ under the action of a stochastic flow grows linearly in time. We show that the asymptotic linear expansion speed if…

Let $M$ be either the 2-sphere $\SS^2 \subset\RR^3$ or the hyperbolic plane $\HH^2 \subset \RR^3$. If $\Delta(abc)$ is a geodesic triangle on $M$ with corners at $a,b,c\in M$, we denote by $\alpha, \beta, \gamma\in M$ the midpoints of their…

We show that there are well separated families of quantum expanders with asymptotically the maximal cardinality allowed by a known upper bound. This has applications to the "growth" of certain operator spaces: It implies asymptotically…

Let X be a Hadamard manifold and $\Gamma$ a discrete group of isometries of X which contains an axial isometry without invariant flat half plane. We study the behavior of conformal densities on the geometric limit set of $\Gamma$ in order…

The purpose of this paper is to provide a uniformization procedure for Gromov hyperbolic spaces, which need not be geodesic or proper. We prove that the conformal deformation of a Gromov hyperbolic space is a bounded uniform space. Further,…

We prove that for the geodesic flow of a rank 1 Riemannian surface which is expansive but not Anosov the Hausdorff dimension of the set of vectors with only zero Lyapunov exponents is large.

For a triangle in the hyperbolic plane, let $\alpha,\beta,\gamma$ denote the angles opposite the sides $a,b,c$, respectively. Also, let $h$ be the height of the altitude to side $c$. Under the assumption that $\alpha,\beta, \gamma$ can be…

In this paper we construct spanning trees in hyperbolic graphs that represent their hyperbolic compactification in a good way: so that the tree has a bounded number of distinct rays to each boundary point. The bound depends only on the…

In this article we explore the relationship between the systole and the diameter of closed hyperbolic orientable surfaces. We show that they satisfy a certain inequality, which can be used to deduce that their ratio has a (genus dependent)…

Exploring abundance and non lacunarity of hyperbolic times for endomorphisms preserving an ergodic probability with positive Lyapunov exponents, we obtain that there are periodic points of period growing sublinearly with respect to the…

A graph G is list (b:a)-colorable if for every assignment of lists of size b to vertices of G, there exists a choice of an a-element subset of the list at each vertex such that the subsets chosen at adjacent vertices are disjoint. We prove…

The purpose of this article is to give a characterization of families of expander graphs via right-angled Artin groups. We prove that a sequence of simplicial graphs $\{\Gamma_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ forms a family of expander graphs if and…

We study the (Ahlfors regular) conformal dimension of the boundary at infinity of Gromov hyperbolic groups which split over elementary subgroups. If such a group is not virtually free, we show that the conformal dimension is equal to the…

Let $\mathcal{M}=\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H}^{d+1}$ be a geometrically finite hyperbolic manifold with critical exponent exceeding $d/2$. We obtain a precise asymptotic expansion of the matrix coefficients for the geodesic flow in…

We prove that for every closed, connected, orientable, irreducible 3-manifold, there exists an alternating group A_n which is not the topological symmetry group of any graph embedded in the manifold. We also show that for every finite group…

The Cheeger constant of a graph, or equivalently its coboundary expansion, quantifies the expansion of the graph. This notion assumes an implicit choice of a coefficient group, namely, $\mathbb{F}_2$. In this paper, we study Cheeger-type…
