Hierarchically hyperbolic spaces (HHSs) are a large class of spaces that provide a unified framework for studying the mapping class group, right-angled Artin and Coxeter groups, and many 3--manifold groups. We investigate strongly…

We show that Morse elements are generic in acylindrically hyperbolic groups. As an application, we observe that fully irreducible outer automorphisms are generic in the outer automorphism group of a finite-rank free group.

We consider splittings of groups over finite and two-ended subgroups. We study the combinatorics of such splittings using generalisations of Whitehead graphs. In the case of hyperbolic groups, we relate this to the topology of the boundary.…

We note a characterization of the amenability of unitary representations (in the sense of Bekka) via the existence of an orthonormal basis supporting an invariant probability charge. Based on this, we explore several natural notions of…

We study those groups that act properly discontinuously, cocompactly, and isometrically on CAT(0) spaces with isolated flats and the Relative Fellow Traveller Property. The groups in question include word hyperbolic CAT(0) groups as well as…

We show that every word hyperbolic, surface-by-(noncyclic) free group Gamma is as rigid as possible: the quasi-isometry group of Gamma equals the abstract commensurator group Comm(Gamma), which in turn contains Gamma as a finite index…

We define an algebraic group over a group $G$ to be a variety - that is, a subset of $G^d$ defined by equations over $G$ - endowed with a group law whose coordinates can be expressed as word maps. In the case where $G$ is a torsion-free…

For any finite collection $f_i$ of fully irreducible automorphisms of the free group $F_n$ we construct a connected $\delta$-hyperbolic $Out(F_n)$-complex in which each $f_i$ has positive translation length.

We introduce an obstruction to the existence of a coarse embedding of a given group or space into a hyperbolic group, or more generally into a hyperbolic graph of bounded degree. The condition we consider is "admitting exponentially many…

We show that a geodesic metric space is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov if and only if intersections of balls have bounded eccentricity. In particular, $\R$-trees are characterized among geodesic metric spaces by the property that the…

Let $f:\mathbb{C}\sp n\to\mathbb{C}\sp n$, $n\geq2$, be a biholomorphism and let $\Lambda\subseteq \mathbb{C}\sp n$ be a compact $f$-invariant set such that $f|\Lambda$ is partially hyperbolic. We give equivalent conditions to hyperbolicity…

In this article we give several characterizations for various transitivity properties for linear operators. We define a general form of `Hypercyclicity Criterion' using a Furstenberg family $\mathcal{F}$ to characterize…

We give a combinatorial criterion that implies both the non-strong relative hyperbolicity and the one-endedness of a finitely generated group. We use this to show that many important classes of groups do not admit a strong relatively…

Let $G$ be a graph with the usual shortest-path metric. A graph is $\delta$-hyperbolic if for every geodesic triangle $T$, any side of $T$ is contained in a $\delta$-neighborhood of the union of the other two sides. A graph is chordal if…

We study relations between maps between relatively hyperbolic groups/spaces and quasisymmetric embeddings between their boundaries. More specifically, we establish a correspondence between (not necessarily coarsely surjective)…

A projective manifold $M$ is algebraically hyperbolic if there exists a positive constant $A$ such that the degree of any curve of genus $g$ on $M$ is bounded from above by $A(g-1)$. A classical result is that Kobayashi hyperbolicity…

We propose a new model for random quotients of groups using independent random walks. In this model, we show that random quotients of acylindrical hyperbolic groups asymptotically almost surely remain acylindrically hyperbolic. Our main…

In this article, we study the outer automorphism group of a group G decomposed as a finite graph of group with finite edge groups and finitely generated vertex groups with at most one end. We show that Out(G) is essentially obtained by…

We study frequent hypercyclicity in the context of strongly continuous semigroups of operators. More precisely, we give a criterion (sufficient condition) for a semigroup to be frequently hypercyclic, whose formulation depends on the Pettis…

We give examples of hyperbolic groups with finite-rank free subgroups of huge (Ackermannian) distortion.
