We study the boundaries of relatively hyperbolic HHGs. Using the simplicial structure on the hierarchically hyperbolic boundary, we characterize both relative hyperbolicity and being thick of order 1 among HHGs. In the case of relatively…
We give the asymptotic growth of the number of (multi-)arcs of bounded length between boundary components on complete finite-area hyperbolic surfaces with boundary. Specifically, if $S$ has genus $g$, $n$ boundary components and $p$…
Suppose that a finitely generated group $G$ is hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups $\{H_1, ..., H_m\} $. We prove that if each of the subgroups $H_1, ..., H_m$ has finite asymptotic dimension, then asymptotic dimension of $G$…
We extend some properties of random walks on hyperbolic groups to random walks on convergence groups. In particular we prove that if a convergence group $G$ acts on a compact metrizable space $M$ with the convergence property then we can…
Suppose $H$ is a hyperbolic subgroup of a hyperbolic group $G$. Assume there exists $n > 0$ such that the intersection of $n$ essentially distinct conjugates of $H$ is always finite. Further assume $G$ splits over $H$ with hyperbolic vertex…
The Cauchy slicings for globally hyperbolic spacetimes and their relation with the causal boundary are surveyed and revisited, starting at the seminal conformal boundary constructions by R. Penrose. Our study covers: (1) adaptive…
An instance of the graph-constrained max-cut (GCMC) problem consists of (i) an undirected graph G and (ii) edge-weights on a complete undirected graph on the same vertex set. The objective is to find a subset of vertices satisfying some…
In the first part of this investigation, [Ha], we generalized a weighted distance function of [Li] and found necessary and sufficient conditions for it being a metric. In this paper some properties of this so-called M-relative metric are…
The main objects of study in this article are pairs $(G, \mathcal{H})$ where $G$ is a topological group with a compact open subgroup, and $\mathcal{H}$ is a finite collection of open subgroups. We develop geometric techniques to study the…
This book offers to study locally compact groups from the point of view of appropriate metrics that can be defined on them, in other words to study "Infinite groups as geometric objects", as Gromov writes it in the title of a famous…
Consider a graph $\Gamma$. A set $ S $ of vertices in $\Gamma$ is called a {cyclic vertex cutset} of $\Gamma$ if $\Gamma - S$ is disconnected and has at least two components containing cycles. If $\Gamma$ has a cyclic vertex cutset, then it…
We investigate a graph theoretic analog of geodesic geometry. In a graph $G=(V,E)$ we consider a system of paths $\mathcal{P}=\{P_{u,v}|u,v\in V\}$ where $P_{u,v}$ connects vertices $u$ and $v$. This system is consistent in that if vertices…
The space of directions is a notion of boundary associated to an arbitrary totally disconnected locally compact group. We explicitly calculate the space of directions of a group acting vertex transitively with compact open vertex…
A vertex in a graph is called central if it minimizes its maximum distance to the other vertices. The radius of a graph $G$ is the largest distance between a central vertex and the other vertices, and it is denoted by $rad(G)$. In the…
We associate a graph $\mathcal{N}_{G}$ with a group $G$ (called the non-nilpotent graph of $G$) as follows: take $G$ as the vertex set and two vertices are adjacent if they generate a non-nilpotent subgroup. In this paper we study the graph…
Hyperbolic networks are supposed to be congruent with their underlying latent geometry and following geodesics in the hyperbolic space is believed equivalent to navigate through topological shortest paths (TSP). This assumption of…
Let B be a finite collection of geometric (not necessarily convex) bodies in the plane. Clearly, this class of geometric objects naturally generalizes the class of disks, lines, ellipsoids, and even convex polygons. We consider geometric…
For a partially hyperbolic splitting a $C^1$ vector field $X$ on a $m$-manifold $M$, we obtain singular hyperbolicity whether $E$ is one-dimensional subspace, based on the idea of cross products. We show the existence of adapted metrics for…
In this paper, we study some group-theoretic constructions associated to arithmetic fundamental groups of hyperbolic curves over finite fields. One of the main results of this paper asserts that any Frobenius-preserving isomorphism between…
We examine the metrics that arise when a finite set of points is embedded in the real line, in such a way that the distance between each pair of points is at least 1. These metrics are closely related to some other known metrics in the…
