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…

We present a new notion of non-positively curved groups: the collection of discrete countable groups acting (AU-)acylindrically on finite products of $\delta$-hyperbolic spaces with general type factors and associated subdirect products.…

We give a complete characterisation of when the right-angled Artin group on one cycle graph can be quasiisometrically embedded in the right-angled Artin group on another cycle graph. In particular, we find infinitely many instances of…

We provide conditions guaranteeing that certain classes of robust heteroclinic networks are asymptotically stable. We study the asymptotic stability of ac-networks --- robust heteroclinic networks that exist in smooth ${\mathbb…

We give a criterion to prove that some groups are not acylindrically hyperbolic. As an application, we prove that the mapping class group of an infinite type surface is not acylindrically hyperbolic.

We show that one can define and effectively compute Stallings graphs for quasi-convex subgroups of automatic groups (\textit{e.g.} hyperbolic groups or right-angled Artin groups). These Stallings graphs are finite labeled graphs, which are…

We determine the large scale geometry of the minimal displacement set of a hyperbolic isometry of a systolic complex. As a consequence, we describe the centraliser of such an isometry in a systolic group. Using these results, we construct a…

We use algebraic arc complexes to prove a homological stability result for symplectic groups with slope 2/3 for rings with finite unitary stable rank. Symplectic groups are here interpreted as the automorphism groups of formed spaces with…

The class of acylindrically hyperbolic groups, which are groups that admit a certain type of non-elementary action on a hyperbolic space, contains many interesting groups such as non-exceptional mapping class groups and…

We characterize convex cocompact subgroups of mapping class groups that arise as subgroups of specially embedded right-angled Artin groups. That is, if the right-angled Artin group G in Mod(S) satisfies certain conditions that imply G is…

We introduce a class of metric spaces which we call "bolic". They include hyperbolic spaces, simply conneccted complete manifolds of nonpositive curvature, euclidean buildings, etc. We prove the Novikov conjecture on higher signatures for…

In this paper, we show that, if a group $G$ acts geometrically on a geodesically complete CAT(0) space $X$ which contains at least one point with a CAT(-1) neighborhood, then $G$ must be either virtually cyclic or acylindrically hyperbolic.…

In this paper, we show that every irreducible $2$-dimensional Artin group $A_{\Gamma}$ of rank at least $3$ is acylindrically hyperbolic. We do this by studying the action of $A_{\Gamma}$ on its modified Deligne complex. Along the way, we…

The main goal of this note is to suggest an algebraic approach to the quasi-isometric classification of partially commutative groups (alias right-angled Artin groups). More precisely, we conjecture that if the partially commutative groups…

A subgroup of a group $G$ is called algebraic if it can be expressed as a finite union of solution sets to systems of equations. We prove that a non-elementary subgroup $H$ of an acylindrically hyperbolic group $G$ is algebraic if and only…

We give sufficient conditions for a group acting on a geodesic metric space to be acylindrically hyperbolic and mention various applications to groups acting on CAT($0$) spaces. We prove that a group acting on an irreducible non-spherical…

Let $G$ be an infinite discrete group. A classifying space for proper actions of $G$ is a proper $G$-CW-complex $X$ such that the fixed point sets $X^H$ are contractible for all finite subgroups $H$ of $G$. In this paper we consider the…

Let $G$ be the group of orientation-preserving isometries of a rank-one symmetric space $X$ of non-compact type. We study local rigidity of certain actions of a solvable subgroup $\Gamma \subset G$ on the boundary of $X$, which is…

We present a new notion of non-positively curved groups: the collection of discrete countable groups acting (AU-)acylindrically on finite products of $\delta$-hyperbolic spaces with general type factors. Inspired by the classical theory of…

The notions of stable and Morse subgroups of finitely generated groups generalize the concept of a quasiconvex subgroup of a word-hyperbolic group. For a word-hyperbolic group $G$, Kapovich provided a partial algorithm which, on input a…
