We present a concise proof for the supporting hyperplane theorem. We then observe that the proof not only establishes the supporting hyperplane theorem but also extends it to a hyperplane separation theorem for certain non-convex sets. The…

Let $G$ be a relatively hyperbolic group that admits a decomposition into a finite graph of relatively hyperbolic groups structure with quasi-isometrically (qi) embedded condition. We prove that the set of conjugates of all the vertex and…

We generalize some results of Paulin and Rips-Sela on endomorphisms of hyperbolic groups to relatively hyperbolic groups, and in particular prove the following. (1) If G is a finitely generated non-elementary relatively hyperbolic group…

The goal of this paper is to give an exposition of some results of Bestvina-Mess on local connectivity of the boundary of a one-ended word hyperbolic group. We also give elementary proofs that all hyperbolic groups are semistable at…

This paper overviews recent developments in the classification up to quasi-isometry of finitely generated groups, and more specifically of relatively hyperbolic groups.

Agol proved that hyperbolic cubulated groups are virtually special. The aim of these notes is to make the proof accessible to a wider audience; we retain the underlying ideas and constructions of Agol, but substantially change or add to…

We introduce the separating semigroup of a real algebraic curve of dividing type. The elements of this semigroup record the possible degrees of the covering maps obtained by restricting separating morphisms to the real part of the curve. We…

We give a new, effective proof of the separability of cubically convex-cocompact subgroups of special groups. As a consequence, we show that if $G$ is a virtually compact special hyperbolic group, and $Q\leq G$ is a $K$-quasiconvex…

We show that a Kleinian surface group, or hyperbolic 3-manifold with a cusp-preserving homotopy-equivalence to a surface, has bounded geometry if and only if there is an upper bound on an associated collection of coefficients that depend…

We prove that commensurizers of two-ended subgroups with at least three coends in one-ended, finitely presented groups are invariant under quasi-isometries. We discuss a variety of applications of this result.

We begin an investigation into the behavior of Bowditch and Gromov boundaries under the operation of Dehn filling. In particular we show many Dehn fillings of a toral relatively hyperbolic group with 2-sphere boundary are hyperbolic with…

Let G be a group which is hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups A, and it is also hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups B. Suppose that the collection A contains B. We characterize, for subgroups of G, when…

We propose the study of Markov chains on groups as a "quasi-isometry invariant" theory that encompasses random walks. In particular, we focus on certain classes of groups acting on hyperbolic spaces including (non-elementary) hyperbolic and…

In this paper, we continue with the results in \cite{Pg} and compute the group of quasi-isometries for a subclass of split solvable unimodular Lie groups. Consequently, we show that any finitely generated group quasi-isometric to a member…

The Cannon Conjecture from the geometric group theory asserts that a word hyperbolic group that acts effectively on its boundary, and whose boundary is homeomorphic to the 2-sphere, is isomorphic to a Kleinian group. We prove the following…

In this paper, we present a notion of quasiconvexity in the setting of finitely-generated groups with hyperbolically embedded subgroups. Our main result shows that this notion yields uniform quasiconvex constants in the setting of coned-off…

A hyperbolic group acts by homeomorphisms on its Gromov boundary. We use a dynamical coding of boundary points to show that such actions are topologically stable in the dynamical sense: any nearby action is semi-conjugate to (and an…

In this paper we show that if $Y=N \times \mathbb{Q}_m$ is a metric space where $N$ is a Carnot group endowed with the Carnot-Caratheodory metric then any quasisymmetric map of $Y$ is actually bilipschitz. The key observation is that $Y$ is…

Under natural assumptions on the observable, we prove a Central Limit Theorem, a Berry-Esseen Theorem, and a quantitative Local Limit Theorem for a broad class of partially hyperbolic endomorphisms of the two-dimensional torus. Our results…

We prove that hyperbolic groups with logarithmic separation profiles split over cyclic groups. This shows that such groups can be inductively built from Fuchsian groups and free groups by amalgamations and HNN extensions over finite or…
