This paper studies coarse compactifications and their boundary. We introduce two alternative descriptions to Roe's original definition of coarse compactification. One approach uses bounded functions on $X$ that can be extended to the…

We show that in dimensions $>1$ the cohomology groups of the Higson compactification of the hyperbolic space $\H^n$ with respect to the $C_0$ coarse structure are trivial. Also we prove that the cohomology groups of the Higson…

We present an idea of unifying small scale (topology, proximity spaces, uniform spaces) and large scale (coarse spaces, large scale spaces). It relies on an analog of multilinear forms from Linear Algebra. Each form has a large scale…

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 $0$.…

In this paper, we characterise metric spaces which have topologically connected Higson coronas. The characterisation is given by a natural categorical condition applied in the coarse category. We also give a characterisation in terms of…

For any compact Hausdorff space $K$ we construct a canonical finitary coarse structure $\mathcal E_{X,K}$ on the set $X$ of isolated points of $K$. This construction has two properties: $\bullet$ If a finitary coarse space $(X,\mathcal E)$…

This paper discusses properties of the Higson corona by means of a quotient on coarse ultrafilters on a proper metric space. We use this description to show that the corona functor is faithful. This study provides a K\"unneth formula for…

In this paper, we introduce the boundary $\mathcal{U}X$ of a coarse proximity space $(X,\mathcal{B},{\bf b}).$ This boundary is a subset of the boundary of a certain Smirnov compactification. We show that $\mathcal{U}X$ is compact and…

This paper is a systematic approach to the construction of coronas (i.e. Higson dominated boundaries at infinity) of combable spaces. We introduce three additional properties for combings: properness, coherence and expandingness. Properness…

This paper deepens into the relations between coarse spaces and compactifications, by defining a $C_0$ coarse structure attached to a family of pseudometrics. This definition allow us to give a more topological point of view on the…

We construct a corona of a relatively hyperbolic group by blowing-up all parabolic points of its Bowditch boundary. We relate the $K$-homology of the corona with the $K$-theory of the Roe algebra, via the coarse assembly map. We also…

Let $G$ be an infinite group, $\kappa$ be an infinite cardinal, $\kappa\leq \mid G\mid$ and let $\mathcal{E}_{\kappa}$ denotes a coarse structure on $G$ with the base $\{\{ (x,y): y\in F x F\}: F\in [G]^{<\kappa}\}$. We prove that if either…

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 show that under mild set theoretic hypotheses we have rigidity for algebras of continuous functions over Higson coronas, topological spaces arising in coarse geometry. In particular, we show that under $\mathsf{OCA}$ and $\mathsf…

In this paper, we consider spaces whose Higson coronae are indecomposable continua. We show that for a non-compact proper metric space $X$ which is coarsely geodesic and has coarse bounded geometry, the Higson corona of $X$ is an…

We prove that the Gromov boundary of every hyperbolic group is homeomorphic to some Markov compactum. Our reasoning is based on constructing a sequence of covers of $\partial G$, which is quasi-$G$-invariant wrt. the ball $N$-type (defined…

In this note on coarse geometry we revisit coarse homotopy. We prove that coarse homotopy indeed is an equivalence relation, and this in the most general context of abstract coarse structures. We introduce (in a geometric way) coarse…

Let $\mathbf{TB}$ be the category of totally bounded, locally compact metric spaces with the $C_0$ coarse structures. We show that if $X$ and $Y$ are in $\mathbf{TB}$ then $X$ and $Y$ are coarsely equivalent if and only if their Higson…

Hierarchically hyperbolic spaces provide a common framework for studying mapping class groups of finite type surfaces, Teichm\"uller space, right-angled Artin groups, and many other cubical groups. Given such a space $\mathcal X$, we build…

We study Bowditch's notion of a coarse median on a metric space and formally introduce the concept of a coarse median structure as an equivalence class of coarse medians up to closeness. We show that a group which possesses a uniformly…
