In this paper we prove that the asymptotic dimension of a finite-dimensional CAT(0) cube complex is bounded above by the dimension. To achieve this we prove a controlled colouring theorem for the complex. We also show that every CAT(0) cube…

In this note, we prove that finite CAT(0) cube complexes can be reconstructed from their boundary distances (computed in their 1-skeleta). This result was conjectured by Haslegrave, Scott, Tamitegama, and Tan (2023). The reconstruction of a…

We provide a necessary and sufficient condition on a finite flag simplicial complex, L, for which there exists a unique CAT(0) cube complex whose vertex links are all isomorphic to L. We then find new examples of such CAT(0) cube complexes…

We study the collapsibility of finite simplicial complexes of dimension 3 endowed with a CAT(0) metric. Our main result states that, under an additional hypothesis, finite simplicial 3-complexes endowed with a CAT(0) metric collapse to a…

For a CAT(0) cube complex $\mathbf X$, we define a simplicial flag complex $\partial_\Delta\mathbf X$, called the \emph{simplicial boundary}, which is a natural setting for studying non-hyperbolic behavior of $\mathbf X$. We compare…

The boundary rigidity problem is a classical question from Riemannian geometry: if $(M, g)$ is a Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary, is the geometry of $M$ determined up to isometry by the metric $d_g$ induced on the boundary…

For locally finite CAT(0) cube complexes it is known that they are injectively metrizable choosing the $l_\infty$-norm on each cube. In this paper we show that cube complexes which are injective with respect to this metric are always…

We show that an automorphism of an arbitrary CAT(0) cube complex either has a fixed point or preserves some combinatorial axis. It follows that when a group contains a distorted cyclic subgroup, it admits no proper action on a discrete…

For each $n$ we construct examples of finitely presented $C'(1/6)$ small cancellation groups that do not act properly on any $n$-dimensional CAT(0) cube complex.

In this article, I prove that full subcomplexes of CAT(0) simplicial 3-complexes inherit the non positive curvature condition, and describe a family of counterexamples that prove this result can not be extended to higher dimensions.

We give a sufficient condition for the collapsibility of finite square 2-complexes. We show that any finite, CAT(0) square 2-complex retracts to a point through CAT(0) subspaces.

We bound the size of $d$-dimensional cubulations of finitely presented groups. We apply this bound to obtain acylindrical accessibility for actions on CAT(0) cube complexes and bounds on curves on surfaces.

We introduce a $\mathbb{Z}$-valued cross ratio on Roller boundaries of ${\rm CAT(0)}$ cube complexes. We motivate its relevance by showing that every cross-ratio preserving bijection of Roller boundaries uniquely extends to a cubical…

We show that any filtering family of closed convex subsets of a finite-dimensional CAT(0) space $X$ has a non-empty intersection in the visual bordification $ \bar{X} = X \cup \partial X$. Using this fact, several results known for proper…

We show that the Hilbert space compression of any finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complex is 1 and deduce that any discrete group acting properly, co-compactly on a CAT(0) cube complex is exact. The class of groups covered by this theorem…

We revisit the topic of probability measures on CAT(0) cube complexes and prove that an amenable group acting on a CAT(0) cube complex, regardless of dimension, necessarily preserves an interval in the Roller compactification. In the finite…

We obtain a sufficient condition for lattices in the automorphism group of a finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complex to have infinite girth. As a corollary, we get a version of Girth Alternative for groups acting geometrically: any such…

We prove that for any countable finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complex, the Borel median graph on its Roller compactification has the Borel asymptotic dimension bounded from above by its dimension.

We show that the class of CAT(0) spaces is closed under suitable conformal changes. In particular, any CAT(0) space admits a large variety of non-trivial deformations.

We prove a Tits alternative theorem for groups acting on CAT(0) cubical complexes. Namely, suppose that $G$ is a group for which there is a bound on the orders of its finite subgroups. We prove that if $G$ acts properly on a…
