We use our new type of bounded locally homeomorphic quasiregular mappings in the unit 3-ball to address long standing problems for such mappings. The construction of such mappings comes from our construction of non-trivial compact…

3D-aware visual pretraining has proven effective in improving the performance of downstream robotic manipulation tasks. However, existing methods are constrained to Euclidean embedding spaces, whose flat geometry limits their ability to…

Object detection, for the most part, has been formulated in the euclidean space, where euclidean or spherical geodesic distances measure the similarity of an image region to an object class prototype. In this work, we study whether a…

In the 1980s Alano Ancona developed a profound potential theory on Gromov hyperbolic manifolds of bounded geometry. Since then, such hyperbolic spaces have become basic in geometry, topology and group theory. In this paper we make Ancona's…

With the aid of a Gromov hyperbolic characterization of uniform domains, we first give an affirmative answer to an open question arisen by V\"ais\"al\"a under weaker assumption. Next, we show that the three-point condition introduced by…

Let X be an arbitrary hyperbolic geodesic metric space and let G be a countable non-elementary weakly acylindrical group of isometries of X. We show that the second bounded cohomology group of G with real coefficients or with coefficients…

We lay the foundations for the study of relatively quasiconvex subgroups of relatively hyperbolic groups. These foundations require that we first work out a coherent theory of countable relatively hyperbolic groups (not necessarily finitely…

The equivariant Gromov--Hausdorff convergence of metric spaces is studied. Where all isometry groups under consideration are compact Lie, it is shown that an upper bound on the dimension of the group guarantees that the convergence is by…

We discuss domestic affairs of metric spaces, keeping away from any extra structure. Topics include universal spaces, injective spaces, Hausdorff and Gromov--Hausdorff convergences, and ultralimits.

We prove uniform boundedness of certain boundary representations on appropriate fractional Sobolev spaces $W^{s,p}$ with $p>1$ for arbitrary Gromov hyperbolic groups. These are closed subspaces of $L^p$ and in particular Hilbert spaces in…

We examine the correspondence between the conformal field theory of boundary operators and two-dimensional hyperbolic geometry. By consideration of domain boundaries in two-dimensional critical systems, and the invariance of the hyperbolic…

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…

Chapter 1 is a short history of non-Euclidean geometry, which synthesises my readings of mostly secondary sources. Chapter 2 presents each of the main models of hyperbolic geometry, and describes the tesselation of the upper half-plane…

In a recent paper, Zhou, Ponnusamy, and Rasila [Math. Nachr. (2025)] have established that the conformal deformations, with parameter $\epsilon>0$, of a Gromov hyperbolic space via Busemann functions are uniform spaces for sufficiently…

We develop the theory of Patterson-Sullivan measures on the boundary of a locally compact hyperbolic group, associating to certain left invariant metrics on the group measures on the boundary. We later prove that for second countable,…

The aim of these notes is to connect the theory of hyperbolic and relatively hyperbolic groups to the theory of manifolds and Kleinian groups. We survey some of the extensive work that has been done in the field, and explain many examples.…
