Looking to the fundamental domains of space groups we can investigate in which space they can be realized. If this space is hyperbolic, then the corresponding space group is also hyperbolic. In addition to the usual methods for…

We give complete characterizations (in terms of nerves) of those word hyperbolic Coxeter groups whose Gromov boundary is homeomorphic to the Sierpi\'nski curve and to the Menger curve, respectively. The justification is mostly an…

The purpose of this note is to provide a short alternate proof that (combined with a theorem proven by Szczepanski) shows that a group which is relatively hyperbolic in the sense of the definition of Gromov is relatively hyperbolic in the…

The goal of this survey is to present combinatorial modulus that have been recently used to study quasi-conformal properties of boundaries of hyperbolic groups. First, we will recall well known rigidity results and questions that motivated…

An interesting question about quasiconvexity in a hyperbolic group concerns finding classes of quasiconvex subsets that are closed under finite intersections. A known example is the class of all quasiconvex subgroups. However, not much is…

For a fixed word hyperbolic group we compare different residual properties related to quasiconvex subgroups.

We give upper bounds, linear in rank, to the topological dimensions of the Gromov boundaries of the intersection graph, the free factor graph and the cyclic splitting graph of a finitely generated free group.

This article is dedicated to the characterisation of the relative hyperbolicity of Haglund and Wise's special groups. More precise, we introduce a new combinatorial formalism to study (virtually) special groups, and we prove that, given a…

We call a finitely generated group lacunary hyperbolic if one of its asymptotic cones is an R-tree. We characterize lacunary hyperbolic groups as direct limits of Gromov hyperbolic groups satisfying certain restrictions on the hyperbolicity…

Given isometric actions by a group G on finitely many \delta-hyperbolic metric spaces, we provide a sufficient condition that guarantees the existence of a single element in G that is hyperbolic for each action. As an application we prove a…

We show that Morse elements are generic in acylindrically hyperbolic groups. As an application, we observe that fully irreducible outer automorphisms are generic in the outer automorphism group of a finite-rank free group.

We prove the Borel Conjecture for a class of groups containing word-hyperbolic groups and groups acting properly, isometrically and cocompactly on a finite dimensional CAT(0)-space.

We introduce and study the notions of hyperbolically embedded and very rotating families of subgroups. The former notion can be thought of as a generalization of the peripheral structure of a relatively hyperbolic group, while the later one…

We consider conditions on relatively hyperbolic groups about the non-existence of certain kinds of splittings, and show these properties persist in long Dehn fillings. We deduce that certain connectivity properties of the Bowditch boundary…

In this paper we consider ultra-parallel complex hyperbolic triangle groups of type $[m_1,m_2,0]$, i.e. groups of isometries of the complex hyperbolic plane, generated by complex reflections in three ultra-parallel complex geodesics two of…

This is an expository article about groups generated by two isometries of the complex hyperbolic plane.

We will provide bounds on both the Betti numbers and the torsion part of the homology of hyperbolic orbifolds. These bounds are linear in the volume and are a direct consequence of an efficient simplicial model of the thick part, which we…

Agol proved that hyperbolic cubulated groups are virtually special. The aim of these notes is to make the proof accessible to a wider audience; we retain the underlying ideas and constructions of Agol, but substantially change or add to…

We show that first-order formulae are concise in acylindrically hyperbolic groups and certain extensions thereof. We study further classes of groups, including Burnside groups, icc groups, groups with the `Big Powers' condition, torus knot…

We show that for any finitely generated subgroup $H$ of a limit group $L$ there exists a finite-index subgroup $K$ containing $H$, such that $K$ is a subgroup of a group obtained from $H$ by a series of extensions of centralizers and free…
