We study an infinite set of graphs which are recursively constructed from an infinite word in a finite alphabet. These graphs are inspired by the construction of the Sierpi\'nski gasket. We show that there are infinitely many non-isomorphic…
We investigate the horofunction boundary of the Hilbert geometry defined on an arbitrary finite-dimensional bounded convex domain D. We determine its set of Busemann points, which are those points that are the limits of `almost-geodesics'.…
For each infinite word over a given finite alphabet, we define an increasing sequence of rooted finite graphs, that can be thought as approximations of the famous Sierpinski carpet. These sequences naturally converge to an infinite rooted…
We study the horofunction boundary of finitely generated nilpotent groups, and the natural group action on it. More specifically, we prove the followings results: For discrete Heisenberg groups, we classify the orbits of Busemann points. As…
We determine the set of Busemann points of an arbitrary finite-dimensional normed space. These are the points of the horofunction boundary that are the limits of "almost-geodesics". We prove that all points in the horofunction boundary are…
We associate, with every infinite word over a finite alphabet, an increasing sequence of rooted finite graphs, which provide a discrete approximation of the famous Sierpi\'nski carpet fractal. Each of these sequences converges, in the…
In this paper we give a complete description of the horofunction boundary of the infinite dimensional real hyperbolic space, and characterise its Busemann points.
We give a complete analytic and geometric description of the horofunction boundary for polygonal sub-Finsler metrics---that is, those that arise as asymptotic cones of word metrics---on the Heisenberg group. We develop theory for the more…
We prove that a linear growth graph has finitely many horofunctions. This provides a short and simple proof that any finitely generated infinite group of linear growth is virtually cyclic.
We study the action of a nilpotent group G with finite generating set S on its horofunction boundary. We show that there is one finite orbit associated to each facet of the polytope obtained by projecting S into the infinite component of…
We study graphs with nonnegative Bakry-\'Emery curvature or Ollivier curvature outside a finite subset. For such a graph, via introducing the discrete Gromov-Hausdorff convergence we prove that the space of bounded harmonic functions is…
Suppose Gamma is an S-arithmetic subgroup of a connected, semisimple algebraic group G over a global field Q (of any characteristic). It is well known that Gamma acts by isometries on a certain CAT(0) metric space X_S that is a Cartesian…
Steinerberger defined a notion of boundary for a graph and established a corresponding isoperimetric inquality. Hence, "large" graphs have more boundary vertices. In this paper, we first characterize graphs with three boundary vertices in…
A problem by Diestel is to extend algebraic flow theory of finite graphs to infinite graphs with ends. In order to pursue this problem, we define an A-flow and non-elusive H-flow for arbitrary graphs and for abelian topological Hausdorff…
Let $\varphi:V\times V\to W$ be a bilinear map of finite vector spaces $V$ and $W$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We present asymptotic bounds on the number of isomorphism classes of bilinear maps under the natural action of…
Let Y be an infinite covering space of a projective manifold M in P^N of dimension n geq 2. Let C be the intersection with M of at most n-1 generic hypersurfaces of degree d in P^N. The preimage X of C in Y is a connected submanifold. Let…
In a series of three papers we develop an end space theory for directed graphs. As for undirected graphs, the ends of a digraph are points at infinity to which its rays converge. Unlike for undirected graphs, some ends are joined by limit…
We give upper and lower bounds for the Hausdorff dimensions for a class of graph-directed measures when its underlying directed graph is the infinite N-ary tree. These measures are different from graph-directed self-similar measures driven…
Let T_1,..., T_d be homogeneous trees with degrees q_1+1,..., q_d+1>=3, respectively. For each tree, let h:T_j->Z be the Busemann function with respect to a fixed boundary point (end). Its level sets are the horocycles. The horocyclic…
In the f.g. setting, we construct horoballs which are "not centered around a geodesic" for generalized Heisenberg groups and all wreath products with an infinite acting group. That is, we find are limits of balls -- called horoballs --…
