Every geodesic current on a hyperbolic surface has an associated dual space. If the current is a lamination, this dual embeds isometrically into a real tree. We show that, in general, the dual space is a Gromov hyperbolic metric tree-graded…

This is a tale describing the large scale geometry of Euclidean plane domains with their hyperbolic or quasihyperbolic distances. We prove that in any hyperbolic plane domain, hyperbolic and quasihyperbolic quasi-geodesics are the same…

It is proved that the Gromov-Hausdorff metric on the space of compact metric spaces considered up to an isometry is strictly intrinsic, i.e., the corresponding metric space is geodesic. In other words, each two points of this space (each…

We investigate the relationship between the metric boundary and the Gromov boundary of a hyperbolic metric space. We show that the Gromov boundary is a quotient topological space of the metric boundary, and that therefore a word-hyperbolic…

We construct a category of examples of partially hyperbolic geodesic flows which are not Anosov, deforming the metric of a compact locally symmetric space of nonconstant negative curvature. Candidates for such example as the product metric…

We construct geometrically infinite hyperbolic surfaces supporting horocycles with tailored recurrence properties. In particular, we obtain the first examples of non-trivial minimal horocyclic orbit closures and of infinite locally-finite…

Based on a quantitative version of the classical Hopf-Rinow theorem in terms of the doubling property, we prove new precompactness principles in the (pointed) Gromov-Hausdorff topology for domains in (maybe incomplete) Riemannian manifolds…

We study geometric and topological properties of locally compact, geodesically complete spaces with an upper curvature bound. We control the size of singular subsets, discuss homotopical and measure-theoretic stratifications and regularity…

We provide two new characterizations of geometrically infinite actions on Gromov hyperbolic spaces: one in terms of the existence of escaping geodesics, and the other via the presence of uncountably many non-conical limit points. These…

Strong hyperbolicity is a coarse notion of negative curvature, stronger than Gromov hyperbolicity, that includes all CAT(-k) metrics for k positive and allows the use of dynamical techniques available in negative curvature, such as…

We introduce the class of nonpositively curved 2-complexes with the Isolated Flats Property. These 2-complexes are, in a sense, hyperbolic relative to their flats. More precisely, we show that several important properties of…

We study closed geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces, and give bounds for their angles of intersection and self-intersection, and for the sides of the polygons that they form, depending only on the lengths of the geodesics

In this paper we study the hyperbolicity in the sense of Gromov of domains in $\mathbb{R}^d$ $(d\geq3)$ with respect to the minimal metric introduced by Forstneri\v{c} and Kalaj. In particular, we prove that every bounded strongly minimally…

The contracting boundary of a proper geodesic metric space generalizes the Gromov boundary of a hyperbolic space. It consists of contracting geodesics up to bounded Hausdorff distances. Another generalization of the Gromov boundary is the…

We obtain new inequalities for certain hypergeometric functions. Using these inequalities, we deduce estimates for the hyperbolic metric and the induced distance function on a certain canonical hyperbolic plane domain.
