We explicate a number of notions of algebraic laminations existing in the literature, particularly in the context of an exact sequence $$1\to H\to G \to Q \to 1 $$ of hyperbolic groups. These laminations arise in different contexts:…

A group $G$ is called subgroup conjugacy separable (abbreviated as SCS) if any two finitely generated and non-conjugate subgroups of $G$ remain non-conjugate in some finite quotient of $G$. An into-conjugacy version of SCS is abbreviated by…

We lay the foundations for the study of relatively quasiconvex subgroups of relatively hyperbolic groups. These foundations require that we first work out a coherent theory of countable relatively hyperbolic groups (not necessarily finitely…

Let G be a group acting geometrically on a CAT(0) cube complex X. We prove first that G is hyperbolic relative to the collection P of subgroups if and only if the simplicial boundary of X is the disjoint union of a nonempty discrete set,…

For $i= 1,2$, let $G_i$ be cocompact groups of isometries of hyperbolic space $\Hyp^n$ of real dimension $n$, $n \geq 3$. Let $H_i \subset G_i$ be infinite index quasiconvex subgroups satisfying one of the following conditions: 1) limit set…

We construct an example of a torsion free freely indecomposable finitely presented non-quasiconvex subgroup $H$ of a word hyperbolic group $G$ such that the limit set of $H$ is not the limit set of a quasiconvex subgroup of $G$. In…

We characterize sequences of Kleinian surface groups with convergent subsequences in terms of the asymptotic behavior of the ending invariants of the associated hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Asymptotic behavior of end invariants in a convergent…

We construct nontrivial homomorphisms from the quasi group of some cubic surfaces over $\bbF_{\!p}$ into a group. We show experimentally that the homomorphisms constructed are the only possible ones and that there are no nontrivial…

The aim of these notes is to connect the theory of hyperbolic and relatively hyperbolic groups to the theory of manifolds and Kleinian groups. We survey some of the extensive work that has been done in the field, and explain many examples.…

We prove that a hyperbolic group admits a strongly aperiodic subshift of finite type if and only if it has at most one end.

We prove existence of thick geodesic triangulations of hyperbolic 3-manifolds and use this to prove existence of universal bounds on the principal curvatures of surfaces embedded in hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the fundamental group of a finite graph of groups with infinite cyclic edge groups to be acylindrically hyperbolic, from which it follows that a finitely generated group splitting over Z…

Let X be a complete hyperbolic surface of finite area. We establish that the intersection points of closed geodesics with length <T are equidistributed on X as T goes to infinity.

We give a criterion in terms of the boundary for the existence of a proper cocompact action of a word-hyperbolic group on a CAT(0) cube complex. We describe applications towards lattices and hyperbolic 3-manifold groups. In particular, by…

In this paper we obtain explicit linear upper bounds for the virtually cyclic dimension of normally poly-surface and normally poly-free groups. Our approach is based on a structural study of the balanced property (L\"uck's Condition~C),…

Classifying groups up to quasi-isometry is a fundamental problem in geometric group theory. In the context of hyperbolic and relatively hyperbolic groups, one of the key invariants in this classification is the boundary at infinity. F.…

A linear Weingarten surface in Euclidean space ${\bf R}^3$ is a surface whose mean curvature $H$ and Gaussian curvature $K$ satisfy a relation of the form $aH+bK=c$, where $a,b,c\in {\bf R}$. Such a surface is said to be hyperbolic when…
