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,…

The quasi-redirecting (QR) boundary, introduced by Qing and Rafi, generalizes the Gromov boundary for studying the large-scale geometry of finitely generated groups. Although it is not known to exist for all such groups, its existence has…

Let $S$ be either a free group or the fundamental group of a closed hyperbolic surface. We show that if $G$ is a finitely generated residually-$p$ group with the same pro-$p$ completion as $S$, then two-generated subgroups of $G$ are free.…

It is well known that every word hyperbolic group has a well-defined visual boundary. An example of C. Croke and B. Kleiner shows that the same cannot be said for CAT(0) groups. All boundaries of a CAT(0) group are, however, shape…

We extend several techniques and theorems from geometric group theory so that they apply to geometric actions on arbitrary proper metric ARs (absolute retracts). A second way that we generalize earlier results is by eliminating freeness…

A relatively hyperbolic group $G$ is said to be QCERF if all finitely generated relatively quasiconvex subgroups are closed in the profinite topology on $G$. Assume that $G$ is a QCERF relatively hyperbolic group with double coset separable…

The dense amalgam is an operation (introduced in arXiv:1410.4989) which to any finite collection of metrizable compacta associates canonically some new highly disconnected compact metrisable space in which embedded copies of the initial…

This paper shows that every Gromov hyperbolic group can be described by a finite subdivision rule acting on the 3-sphere. This gives a boundary-like sequence of increasingly refined finite cell complexes which carry all quasi-isometry…

In this paper, we investigate finitely generated groups of isometries of CAT(0) spaces containing some central hyperbolic isometry, and study CAT(0) groups. We show that every CAT(0) group $\Gamma$ has the semi-direct product structure…

An interesting question about quasiconvexity in a hyperbolic group concerns finding classes of quasiconvex subsets that are closed under finite intersections. A known example is the class of all quasiconvex subgroups. However, not much is…

Using an analogue of Makanin-Razborov diagrams, we give a description of the solution set of systems of equations over an equationally Noetherian free product of groups $G$. Equivalently, we give a parametrisation of the set $Hom(H, G)$ of…

In this paper we prove a general structure theorem for relatively hyperbolic groups (with arbitrary peripheral subgroups) acting naive convex co-compactly on properly convex domains in real projective space. We also establish a…

Suppose $G$ is a free product $G = A_1 * A_2* \cdots * A_k * F_N$, where each of the groups $A_i$ is torsion-free and $F_N$ is a free group of rank $N$. Let $\mathcal{O}$ be the deformation space associated to this free product…

Tkachenko and Yaschenko [34] characterized the abelian groups G such that all proper unconditionally closed subsets of G are finite, these are precisely the abelian groups G having cofinite Zariski topology (they proved that such a G is…

We construct `structure invariants' of a one-ended, finitely presented group that describe the way in which the factors of its JSJ decomposition over two-ended subgroups fit together. For groups satisfying two technical conditions, these…

We provide sufficient conditions for two subgroups of a hierarchically hyperbolic group to generate an amalgamated free product over their intersection. The result applies in particular to certain geometric subgroups of mapping class groups…
