For a finitely generated group $G$ and collection of subgroups $\mathcal{P}$ we prove that the relative Dehn function of a pair $(G,\mathcal{P})$ is invariant under quasi-isometry of pairs. Along the way we show quasi-isometries of pairs…
Building upon work of Y. Shalom we give a homological-algebra flavored definition of an induction map in group homology associated to a topological coupling. As an application we obtain estimates of the (co)homological dimension of groups G…
Filling functions are asymptotic invariants of finitely presentable groups; the seminal work on the subject is by M.Gromov. They record features of combinatorial homotopy discs (van Kampen diagrams) filling loops in Cayley 2-complexes.…
We construct an embedding $\Phi$ of $[0,1]^{\infty}$ into $Ham(M, \omega)$, the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a suitable closed symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$. We then prove that $\Phi$ is in fact a quasi-isometry. After…
We build a bridge between geometric group theory and topological dynamical systems by establishing a dictionary between coarse equivalence and continuous orbit equivalence. As an application, we give conceptual explanations for previous…
A new pair of asymptotic invariants for finitely presented groups, called intrinsic and extrinsic tame filling functions, are introduced. These filling functions are quasi-isometry invariants that strengthen the notions of intrinsic and…
In this paper we provide a framework for the study of isoperimetric problems in finitely generated group, through a combinatorial study of universal covers of compact simplicial complexes. We show that, when estimating filling functions,…
We prove a rigidity theorem that shows that, under many circumstances, quasi-isometric embeddings of equal rank, higher rank symmetric spaces are close to isometric embeddings. We also produce some surprising examples of quasi-isometric…
We show that the geometric and homological finiteness properties of group pairs are invariant under a suitable notion of quasi-isometry for group pairs.
The purpose of this note is twofold. In the first part we observe that two finitely generated non-amenable groups are quasi-isometric if and only if they admit topologically orbit equivalent Cantor minimal actions. In particular, free…
We prove that the category of quasi-pseudometric modular spaces whose morphisms are the nonexpansive mappings is isomorphic to a quantale enriched category. To achieve this, we construct an appropriate quantale of isotone functions. We also…
Intrinsic tame filling functions are quasi-isometry invariants that are refinements of the intrinsic diameter function of a group. The main purpose of this paper is to show that every finite presentation of a group has an intrinsic tame…
We extend the notion of an almost flat bundle over a closed Riemannian manifold to bundles over simplicial complexes, and prove that up to a constant factor, this notion is invariant under pullback via maps which induce isomorphisms on…
In this paper we study a homological version of the higher-dimensional divergence invariants defined by Brady and Farb. We show that they are quasi-isometry invariants in the class of proper cocompact Hadamard spaces in the sense of…
The main result of this paper is that determinantal point processes on the real line corresponding to projection operators with integrable kernels are quasi-invariant, in the continuous case, under the group of diffeomorphisms with compact…
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…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective and geometrically irreducible curve over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $q$ elements and $K$ be its function field. Let $\infty$ be a fixed closed point on $X$ and $A$ be the ring of functions regular…
In this paper, we prove that the ${\rm Ham}$-orbit space from a fiber of a large family of cotangent bundles, as a metric space with respect to the Floer-theoretic spectral metric, contains a quasi-isometric embedding of an…
How rich is the collection of groups with a given prominent property? In this work we approach this question for property~$R_\infty$, which says that every automorphism $\varphi$ of a given group has infinitely many orbits under the…
Let $M$ be complete nonpositively curved Riemannian manifold of finite volume whose fundamental group $\Gamma$ does not contain a finite index subgroup which is a product of infinite groups. We show that the universal cover $\tilde M$ is a…
