We describe a construction (the `warped cone construction') which produces examples of coarse spaces with large groups of translations. We show that by this construction we can obtain many examples of coarse spaces which do not have…
We provide the converses to two results of J. Roe (Geom. Topol. 2005): first, the warped cone associated to a free action of an a-T-menable group admits a fibred coarse embedding into a Hilbert space, and second, a free action yielding a…
Warped cones are metric spaces introduced by John Roe from discrete group actions on compact metric spaces to produce interesting examples in coarse geometry. We show that a certain class of warped cones $\mathcal{O}_\Gamma (M)$ admit a…
For uniformly dicrete metric spaces without bounded geometry we suggest a modified version of property A based on metrics of bounded geometry greater than the given metric. We show that this version still implies coarse embeddability in…
We construct the first example of a coarsely non-amenable (= without Guoliang Yu's property A) metric space with bounded geometry which coarsely embeds into a Hilbert space.
We prove that if a quasi-isometry of warped cones is induced by a map between the base spaces of the cones, the actions must be conjugate by this map. The converse is false in general, conjugacy of actions is not sufficient for…
We study the geometry of warped cones over free, minimal isometric group actions and related constructions of expander graphs. We prove a rigidity theorem for the coarse geometry of such warped cones: Namely, if a group has no abelian…
This paper completes a fundamental construction in Alexandrov geometry. Previously we gave a new construction of metric spaces with curvature bounds either above or below, namely warped products with intrinsic metric space base and fiber,…
Property A is a geometric property originally introduced for discrete metric spaces to provide a sufficient condition for coarse embeddability into Hilbert space, and it is defined via a F\o{}lner condition similar in spirit to the…
It is known that the expanders arising as increasing sequences of level sets of warped cones, as introduced by the second-named author, do not coarsely embed into a Banach space as soon as the corresponding warped cone does not coarsely…
Property A introduced by Guoliang Yu is an amenability-type property for metric spaces. In this article, we study property A for uniformly locally finite coarse spaces. Main examples of coarse spaces are a metric space, a set equipped with…
We study property A for metric spaces $X$ with bounded geometry introduced by Guoliang Yu. Property A is an amenability-type condition, which is less restrictive than amenability for groups. The property has a connection with…
We investigate how coarse embeddability of box spaces into Hilbert space behaves under group extensions. In particular, we prove a result which implies that a semidirect product of a finitely generated free group by a finitely generated…
For locally compact groups, we define an analogue to Yu's property A that he defined for discrete metric spaces. We show that our property A for locally compact groups agrees with Roe's notion of property A for proper metric spaces, defined…
Let $X$ be a discrete metric space with bounded geometry. We show that if $X$ admits an "A-by-CE coarse fibration", then the canonical quotient map $\lambda: C^*_{\max}(X)\to C^*(X)$ from the maximal Roe algebra to the Roe algebra of $X$,…
In this paper we show that the fibred coarse embeddability of a warped cone implies the Haagerup property of the appropriate group. Moreover, Kazhdan's property (T) of the group implies geometric property (T) of the warped cone.
In this paper, we study the geometric property (T) for discretized warped cones of an action on a compact Lie group $M$ by its finitely generated subgroup. We show that if a subgroup $G$ is dense in $M$, then the associated discretized…
Iterated asymptotic cones have been used by Dru\c{t}u and Sapir to construct a group with uncountably many pairwise non-homeomorphic asymptotic cones. In this paper we define a class of metric spaces which display a wide range of behaviors…
We introduce two notions of coarse embeddability between operator spaces: almost complete coarse embeddability of bounded subsets and spherically-complete coarse embeddability. We provide examples showing that these notions are strictly…
The shearlets are a special case of the wavelets with composite dilation that, among other things, have a basis-like structure and multi resolution analysis properties. These relatively new representation systems have encountered wide range…
