Kleiner-Leeb and Quint showed that convex subsets in higher-rank symmetric spaces are very rigid compared to rank 1 symmetric spaces. Motivated by this, we consider convex subsets in products of proper CAT(0) spaces $X_1\times X_2$ and show…

We describe a higher dimensional analogue of the Stallings folding sequence for group actions on CAT(0) cube complexes. We use it to give a characterization of quasiconvex subgroups of hyperbolic groups which act properly co-compactly on…

In this article we construct many examples of properly convex irreducible domains divided by Zariski dense relatively hyperbolic groups in every dimension at least 3. This answers a question of Benoist. Relative hyperbolicity and non-strict…

This paper contains a thorough investigation of invariant distributions supported on limit sets of discrete groups acting convex cocompactly on symmetric spaces of negative curvature. It can be considered as a continuation of…

This paper presents a study of the asymptotic geometry of groups with contracting elements, with emphasis on a subclass of statistically convex-cocompact (SCC) actions. The class of SCC actions includes relatively hyperbolic groups, CAT(0)…

A Kleinian group $\Gamma < \mathrm{Isom}(\mathbb H^3)$ is called convex cocompact if any orbit of $\Gamma$ in $\mathbb H^3$ is quasiconvex or, equivalently, $\Gamma$ acts cocompactly on the convex hull of its limit set in $\partial \mathbb…

Given a group action on a simplicial complex such that each simplex stabiliser admits a cocompact model of classifying space for proper actions, we give conditions implying the existence of a cocompact model of classifying space for proper…

For every dimension d, there is an infinite family of convex co-compact reflection groups of isometries of hyperbolic d-space --- the superideal (simplicial and cubical) reflection groups --- with the property that a random group at any…

For relatively hyperbolic groups, we investigate conditions guaranteeing that the subgroup generated by two relatively quasiconvex subgroups $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ is relatively quasiconvex and isomorphic to $Q_1 \ast_{Q_1 \cap Q_2} Q_2$. The main…

In this paper we show that bending a finite volume hyperbolic $d$-manifold $M$ along a totally geodesic hypersurface $\Sigma$ results in a properly convex projective structure on $M$ with finite volume. We also discuss various geometric…

A simplicial graph is said to be (coarsely) Helly if any collection of pairwise intersecting balls has non-empty (coarse) intersection. (Coarsely) Helly groups are groups acting geometrically on (coarsely) Helly graphs. Our main result is…

We discuss how the global geometry and topology of manifolds depend on different group actions of their fundamental groups, and in particular, how properties of a non-trivial compact 4-dimensional cobordism $M$ whose interior has a complete…
