We prove asymptotically isometric, coarsely geodesic metrics on a toral relatively hyperbolic group are coarsely equal. The theorem applies to all lattices in SO(n,1). This partly verifies a conjecture by Margulis. In the case of hyperbolic…

Hyperbolic spaces provide a natural geometry for representing hierarchical and tree-structured data due to their exponential volume growth. To leverage these benefits, neural networks require intrinsic and efficient components that operate…

We study the simplicity of $C^{*}$-algebras built from group actions. For a faithful isometric action of a group $G$ on a countable metric space $X$, we use the associated action representation on $\ell^2(X)$ to define the action-based…

We prove a combination theorem for hyperbolic groups, in the case of groups acting on complexes displaying combinatorial features reminiscent of non-positive curvature. Such complexes include for instance weakly systolic complexes and…

Let S be a closed surface of genus at least 2. We show that a finitely generated group G which is an extension of the fundamental group H of S is word hyperbolic if and only the orbit map of the quotient group G/H on the complex of curves…

The precise behavior of the quasi-hyperbolic metric near a $\mathcal C^{1,1}$-smooth part of the boundary of a domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is obtained.

We build quasi--isometry invariants of relatively hyperbolic groups which detect the hyperbolic parts of the group; these are variations of the stable dimension constructions previously introduced by the authors. We prove that, given any…

Suppose n>2, let M,M' be n-dimensional connected complete finite-volume hyperbolic manifolds with non-empty geodesic boundary, and suppose that the fundamental group of M is quasi-isometric to the fundamental group of M' (with respect to…

We abstract the notion of an A/QI triple from a number of examples in geometric group theory. Such a triple (G,X,H) consists of a group G acting on a Gromov hyperbolic space X, acylindrically along a finitely generated subgroup H which is…

We characterize supramenable groups in terms of existence of invariant probability measures for partial actions on compact Hausdorff spaces and existence of tracial states on partial crossed products. These characterizations show that, in…

In this paper we introduce the hyperbolic mean curvature flow and prove that the corresponding system of partial differential equations are strictly hyperbolic, and based on this, we show that this flow admits a unique short-time smooth…

In this paper we prove that whenever $G$ is hyperbolic relative to a family of exact, ressidually finite subgroups $\{H_1, \ldots, H_n\}$, the corresponding von Neumann algebra $\mathcal L(G)$ is solid relative to the family of subalgebras…

Let G be a group admitting a non-elementary acylindrical action on a Gromov hyperbolic space (for example, a non-elementary relatively hyperbolic group, or the mapping class group of a closed hyperbolic surface, or Out(F_n) for n>1). We…

We prove that, under a mild assumption, any metrizable compactification of a one-ended proper geodesic metric space is connected. As a consequence, we deduce that the boundary, introduced by Durham--Hagen--Sisto, of a one-ended…
