We introduce and study a local combinatorial condition, called the 5/9-condition, on a simplicial complex, implying Gromov hyperbolicity of its universal cover. We hereby give an application of another combinatorial condition, called…
We prove that $7$-located locally $5$-large simplicial complexes are aspherical.
We investigate the structure of the minimal displacement set in weakly systolic complexes. We show that such set is systolic and that it embeds isometrically into the complex. As corollaries, we prove that any isometry of a weakly systolic…
We explore a local combinatorial condition on a simplicial complex, called 8-location. We show that 8-location and simple connectivity imply Gromov hyperbolicity. We mention some applications of such combinatorial negative curvature…
We show that a certain triangulation of CAT(0) triangle-pentagon complexes is $7$-located and locally $5$-large. Hereby we give examples of $7$-located, locally $5$-large groups.
The main technical result of this paper is to characterize the contracting isometries of a CAT(0) cube complex without any assumption on its local finiteness. Afterwards, we introduce the combinatorial boundary of a CAT(0) cube complex, and…
We investigate the structure of the minimal displacement set in $8$-located complexes with the SD'-property. We show that such set embeds isometrically into the complex. Since $8$-location and simple connectivity imply Gromov hyperbolicity,…
We introduce the notion of strictly systolic angled complexes. They generalize Januszkiewickz and \'Swi\k{a}tkowski's $7$-systolic simplicial complexes and also their metric counterparts, which appear as natural analogues to Huang and…
We show that 7-located simplicial complexes satisfy a quadratic isoperimetric inequality.
We introduce the notion of weakly systolic complexes and groups, and initiate regular studies of them. Those are simplicial complexes with nonpositive-curvature-like properties and groups acting on them geometrically. We characterize weakly…
This (quasi-)survey addresses the quasi-isometry classification of locally compact groups, with an emphasis on amenable hyperbolic locally compact groups. This encompasses the problem of quasi-isometry classification of homogeneous…
One of the primary methods of studying the topology of configurations of points in a graph and configurations of disks in a planar region has been to examine discrete combinatorial models arising from the underlying spaces. Despite the…
A simplicial complex is called negatively curved if all its simplices are isometric to simplices in hyperbolic space, and it satisfies Gromov's Link Condition. We prove that, subject to certain conditions, a compact graph of spaces whose…
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 introduce and investigate bucolic complexes, a common generalization of systolic complexes and of CAT(0) cubical complexes. They are defined as simply connected prism complexes satisfying some local combinatorial conditions. We study…
Firstly, we characterise the embeddability of simply connected locally 3-connected 2-dimensional simplicial complexes in 3-space in a way analogous to Kuratowski's characterisation of graph planarity, by nine excluded minors. This answers…
We use the octonionic multiplication $\cdot$ of $\mathbb{S}^{7}$ to associate, to each unit normal section $\eta$ of a submanifold $M$ of $\mathbb{S}^{7},$ an octonionic Gauss map $\gamma_{\eta}:M\rightarrow\mathbb{S}^{6},$…
We motivate the study of metric spaces with a unique convex geodesic bicombing, which we call CUB spaces. These encompass many classical notions of nonpositive curvature, such as CAT(0) spaces and Busemann-convex spaces. Groups having a…
A graph G is locally isometric if the subgraph induced by the neighbourhood of every vertex is an isometric subgraph of G. It is shown that the hamilton cycle problem for locally isometric graphs with maximum degree at most 8 is…
Let $M_\Sigma$ be an $n$-dimensional Thom-Mather stratified space of depth $1$. We denote by $\beta M$ the singular locus and by $L$ the associated link. In this paper we study the problem of when such a space can be endowed with a wedge…
