We consider the relationship between hyperbolic cone-manifold structures on surfaces, and algebraic representations of the fundamental group into a group of isometries. A hyperbolic cone-manifold structure on a surface, with all interior…
Bestvina-Feighn-Handel show that for finitely many generic and independent hyperbolic automorphisms $\phi_1, \cdots, \phi_r$ of $F_n$, the resulting extension $F_n \rtimes F_r$ is hyperbolic. This paper generalizes the above statement to…
We consider closed curves in the hyperbolic space moving by the $L^2$-gradient flow of the elastic energy and prove well-posedness and long time existence. Under the additional penalisation of the length we show subconvergence to critical…
We prove that, under a mild assumption, any metrizable compactification of a one-ended proper geodesic metric space is connected. As a consequence, we deduce that the boundary, introduced by Durham--Hagen--Sisto, of a one-ended…
The large-scale geometry of hyperbolic metric spaces exhibits many distinctive features, such as the stability of quasi-geodesics (the Morse Lemma), the visibility property, and the homeomorphism between visual boundaries induced by a…
In 1995, Rips and Sela asked if torsionfree hyperbolic groups admit globally stable cylinders. We establish this property for all residually finite hyperbolic groups and curve graphs of finite-type surfaces. These cylinders are fine…
We show that Artin groups of extra-large type, and more generally Artin groups of large and hyperbolic type, are hierarchically hyperbolic. This implies in particular that these groups have finite asymptotic dimension and uniform…
We define hyperbolic groupoids, generalizing the notion of a Gromov hyperbolic group. Examples of hyperbolic groupoids include actions of Gromov hyperbolic groups on their boundaries, pseudogroups generated by expanding self-coverings,…
We construct explicit families of quasi-hyperbolic and hyperbolic surfaces. This is based on earlier work of Vojta, and the recent expansion and generalization of it by the first author. In this paper we further extend it to the singular…
A negatively curved hyperbolic cone metric on a surface is rigid if it is determined by the support of its Liouville current. We use a theorem of Erlandsson, Leininger, and Sadanand to show that there are nine mapping class group orbits of…
Thurston has claimed (unpublished) that central extensions of word hyperbolic groups by finitely generated abelian groups are automatic. We show that they are in fact biautomatic. Further, we show that every 2-dimensional cohomology class…
A holomorphic curve in moduli spaces is the image of a non-constant holomorphic map from a hyperbolic surface $B$ of type $(g,n)$ to the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_h$ of closed Riemann surfaces of genus $h$. We show that, when all peripheral…
Let $G$ be a finitely presented group, and let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. We prove that if $H$ is acylindrically hyperbolic and existentially closed in $G$, then $G$ is acylindrically hyperbolic. As a corollary, any finitely presented group…
The main result of this paper is that any $3$-dimensional manifold with a finite group action is equivariantly, invertibly homology cobordant to a hyperbolic manifold; this result holds with suitable twisted coefficients as well. The…
In this paper we obtain a bound on the number of isometry classes of finite area hyperbolic surfaces which are length isospectral to a given surface depending only on the topological type of the surface and the length of the shortest closed…
For a finitely generated group, there are two recent generalizations of the notion of a quasiconvex subgroup of a word-hyperbolic group, namely a stable subgroup and a Morse or strongly quasiconvex subgroup. Durham and Taylor defined…
The goal of this mostly expository paper is to present several candidates for hyperbolic structures on irreducible Artin-Tits groups of spherical type and to elucidate some relations between them. Most constructions are algebraic analogues…
We show that every finitely generated free-by-cyclic group $G$ admits a largest acylindrical action on a hyperbolic space $X$ obtained by coning off maximal product subgroups of $G$. We characterise Morse geodesics of $G$ as those that…
We prove that acylindrically hyperbolic groups are monotileable. That is, every finite subset of the group is contained in a finite tile. This provides many new examples of monotileable groups, and progress on the question of whether every…
We provide new examples of acylindrically hyperbolic groups arising from actions on simplicial trees. In particular, we consider amalgamated products and HNN-extensions, 1-relator groups, automorphism groups of polynomial algebras,…
