Gromov asked whether every one-ended word-hyperbolic group contains a hyperbolic surface group. We prove that every one-ended double of a free group has a hyperbolic surface subgroup if (1) the free group has rank two, or (2) every…
We describe all real points of the parameter space of two-generator Kleinian groups with a parabolic generator, that is, we describe a certain two-dimensional slice through this space. In order to do this we gather together known…
Let G be a graph of hyperbolic groups with 2-ended edge groups. We show that G is hierarchically hyperbolic if and only if G has no distorted infinite cyclic subgroup. More precisely, we show that G is hierarchically hyperbolic if and only…
In this paper, we prove a combination theorem for a relatively acylindrical graph of relatively hyperbolic groups (Theorem 1.1). Here, we are extending the technique of [Tom21] and constructing Bowditch boundary of the fundamental group of…
We show that the semigroup of real linear fractional transformations on a proper subinterval of the real line does not admit any 2-generator dense subsemigroups, and then we construct a 3-parameter family of examples of 3-generator dense…
Let $G$ be an acylindrically hyperbolic group on a $\delta$-hyperbolic space $X$. Assume there exists $M$ such that for any finite generating set $S$ of $G$, the set $S^M$ contains a hyperbolic element on $X$. Suppose that $G$ is…
We prove that the fundamental group of a finite graph of convergence groups with parabolic edge groups is a convergence group. Using this result, under some mild assumptions, we prove a combination theorem for a graph of convergence groups…
We give an elementary construction of polyhedra whose links are connected bipartite graphs, which are not necessarily isomorphic pairwise. We show, that the fundamental groups of some of our polyhedra contain surface groups. In particular,…
We prove that finitely generated relatively hyperbolic groups are bi-exact if and only if all peripheral subgroups are bi-exact. This is a generalization of Ozawa's result which claims that finitely generated relatively hyperbolic groups…
We consider closed orientable 3-dimensional hyperbolic manifolds which are cyclic branched coverings of the 3-sphere, with branching set being a two-bridge knot (or link). We establish two-sided linear bounds depending on the order of the…
By introducing the notion of distributive constant for a family of closed subschemes, we establish a general form of the second main theorem for algebraic nondegenerate meromorphic mappings from a generalized $p$-Parabolic manifold into a…
This paper describes a way to subdivide a 3-manifold into angled blocks, namely polyhedral pieces that need not be simply connected. When the individual blocks carry dihedral angles that fit together in a consistent fashion, we prove that a…
We show that properly and cocompactly cubulated relatively hyperbolic groups are virtually special, provided the peripheral subgroups are virtually special in a way that is compatible with the cubulation. This extends Agol's result for…
We deal with the symmetries of a (2-term) graded vector space or bundle. Our first theorem shows that they define a (strict) Lie 2-groupoid in a natural way. Our second theorem explores the construction of nerves for Lie 2-categories,…
In this paper, we generalize the Kobayashi pseudo-distance to complex manifolds which admit holomorphic bracket generating distributions. The generalization is based on Chow's theorem in sub-Riemannian geometry. Let G be a linear semisimple…
The theory of complex hyperbolic discrete groups is still in its childhood but promises to grow into a rich subfield of geometry. In this paper I will discuss some recent progress that has been made on complex hyperbolic deformations of the…
In this paper we investigate Gromov's question: whether every one-ended word hyperbolic group contains a surface subgroup. The case of double groups is considered by studying the associated one relator groups. We show that the majority…
In this paper we determine all Kobayashi-hyperbolic 2-dimensional complex manifolds for which the group of holomorphic automorphisms has dimension 3. This work concludes a recent series of papers by the author on the classification of…
We consider splittings of groups over finite and two-ended subgroups. We study the combinatorics of such splittings using generalisations of Whitehead graphs. In the case of hyperbolic groups, we relate this to the topology of the boundary.…
In this expository note, we illustrate phenomena and conjectures about boundaries of hyperbolic groups by considering the special cases of certain amalgams of hyperbolic groups. While doing so, we describe fundamental results on hyperbolic…
