Even though big mapping class groups are not countably generated, certain big mapping class groups can be generated by a coarsely bounded set and have a well defined quasi-isometry type. We show that the big mapping class group of a stable…
We study continuous bounded cohomology of totally disconnected locally compact groups with coefficients in a non-Archimedean valued field $K$. To capture the features of classical amenability that induce the vanishing of real bounded…
In \cite{BK02}, M. Bonk and B. Kleiner proved a rigidity theorem for expanding quasi-M\"obius group actions on Ahlfors $n$-regular metric spaces with topological dimension $n$. This led naturally to a rigidity result for quasi-convex…
During the last years, asymptotic (or sequential) constraint qualifications, which postulate upper semicontinuity of certain set-valued mappings and provide a natural companion of asymptotic stationarity conditions, have been shown to be…
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…
It is a consequence of the theorem of Stallings on groups with many ends that splittings over finite groups are preserved by quasi-isometries. In this paper we use asymptotic topology to show that group splittings are preserved by…
We introduce the notion of asymptotic cohomology based on the bounded cohomology and define cohomological asymptotic dimension $\as_{\Z} X$ of metric spaces. We show that it agrees with the asymptotic dimension $\as X$ when the later is…
We describe all the self quasisymmetric maps on the ideal boundary of a particular negatively curved solvable Lie group. As applications, we prove a Liouville type theorem, and derive some rigidity properties for quasiisometries of the…
Almost-isometries are quasi-isometries with multiplicative constant one. Lifting a pair of metrics on a compact space gives quasi-isometric metrics on the universal cover. Under some additional hypotheses on the metrics, we show that there…
We define $\partial$-biLipschitz homeomorphisms between uniform metric spaces and show that these maps are always quasim\"obius. We also show that a homeomorphism being $\partial$-biLipschitz is equivalent to the map biLipschitz in the…
Quasiconformal maps in the complex plane are homeomorphisms that satisfy certain geometric distortion inequalities; infinitesimally, they map circles to ellipses with bounded eccentricity. The local distortion properties of these maps give…
The existence of quasimorphisms on groups of homeomorphisms of manifolds has been extensively studied under various regularity conditions, such as smooth, volume-preserving, and symplectic. However, in this context, nothing is known about…
We develop the foundations of the theory of quasi-visual approximations of bounded metric spaces. Roughly speaking, these are sequences of covers of a given space for which the diameters of the sets in the covers shrink to zero and for…
We establish the following uniformization result for metric spaces $X$ of finite Hausdorff 2-measure. If $X$ is homeomorphic to a smooth 2-manifold $M$ with non-empty boundary, then we show that $X$ admits a quasiconformal almost…
In this paper we study the minimal and maximal $L^{2}$-cohomology of oriented, possibly not complete, Riemannian manifolds. Our focus will be on both the reduced and the unreduced $L^{2}$-cohomology groups. In particular we will prove that…
Let M be a compact manifold. We show the identity component $\mathrm{Homeo}_0(M)$ of the group of self-homeomorphisms of M has a well-defined quasi-isometry type, and study its large scale geometry. Through examples, we relate this large…
We extend the definition of Weinstein's Action homomorphism to Hamiltonian actions with equivariant moment maps of (possibly infinite-dimensional) Lie groups on symplectic manifolds, and show that under conditions including a uniform bound…
Directional notions in topology and analysis naturally lead to nonsymmetric structures such as quasi-metrics, quasi-uniformities, and modular spaces. In these settings, classical notions of connectedness and completion based on symmetric…
The aim of this paper is to investigate the equivalence conditions for uniform perfectness of quasi-metric spaces. We also obtain the invariant property of uniform perfectness under quasim\"obius maps in quasi-metric spaces. In the end, two…
We introduce cone bilipschitz equivalences between metric spaces. These are maps, more general than quasi-isometries, that induce a bilipschitz homeomorphism between asymptotic cones. Non-trivial examples appear in the context of Lie…
