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

We construct an example of a non-trivial homogeneous quasimorphism on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the two and four dimensional quadric hypersurfaces which is continuous with respect to both the $C^0$-metric and the Hofer…

We show that the mapping class group of a handlebody of genus at least 2 (with any number of marked points or spots) is exponentially distorted in the mapping class group of its boundary surface. The same holds true for solid tori with at…

We prove some nice properties of anti-homomorphisms, some of which are analogic to that of homomorphisms. Meanwhile, we develop a new kind of composition called $*$-composition such that the $*$-composition of two anti-homomorphisms is…

In the present work we classify the relatively minimal 3-dimensional quasihomogeneous complex projective varieties under the assumption that the automorphism group is not solvable. By relatively minimal we understand varieties X having at…

We utilize the structure of quasiautomorphic forms over an arbitrary Hecke triangle group to define a new vector analogue of an automorphic form. We supply a proof of the functional equations that hold for these functions modulo the group…

In this paper, by introducing a notion of local quasi holomorphic frame, we obtain a curvature formula for almost Hermitian manifolds which is similar to that of Hermitian manifolds. Moreover, as applications of the curvature formula, we…

We study the geometry of nonrelatively hyperbolic groups. Generalizing a result of Schwartz, any quasi-isometric image of a non-relatively hyperbolic space in a relatively hyperbolic space is contained in a bounded neighborhood of a single…

Construction of optimal deformations is one of the long standing problems of computational mathematics. We consider the problem of computing quasi-isometric deformations with minimal possible quasi-isometry constant (global estimate for…

In this paper we first show that many braid groups of low genus surfaces have their centers as direct factors. We then give a description of centralizers and normalizers of prime order elements in pure mapping class groups of surfaces with…

We provide the first non-trivial examples of quasi-isometric embeddings between curve complexes. These are induced either by puncturing a closed surface or via orbifold coverings. As a corollary, we give new quasi-isometric embeddings…

We show that every continuous homogeneous quasimorphism on a finite-dimensional 1-connected simple Lie group arises as the relative growth of any continuous bi-invariant partial order on that group. More generally we show, that an arbitrary…

Let $\mathcal{S}_H^0(K)$, $K\ge 1$, be the class of normalized $K$-quasiconformal harmonic mappings in the unit disk. We obtain Baernstein type extremal results for the analytic and co-analytic parts of functions in the geometric subclasses…

Uniformly quasiconformally homogeneous domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$ carry a transitive collection of $K$-quasiconformal maps for a fixed $K\geq 1.$ In this paper, we study two questions in this setting. The first is to show that…

For a closed connected manifold N, we construct a family of functions on the Hamiltonian group G of the cotangent bundle T^*N, and a family of functions on the space of smooth functions with compact support on T^*N. These satisfy properties…

We describe the structure of quasiflats in two-dimensio\-nal Artin groups. We rely on the notion of metric systolicity developed in our previous work. Using this weak form of non-positive curvature and analyzing in details the combinatorics…

This paper investigates quasi-isometries between graphs with variable edge lengths. A quasi-isometry is a mapping between metric spaces that approximately preserves distances, allowing for a bounded amount of additive and multiplicative…

Criterions for constancy of the holomorphic sectional curvature and the antiholomorphic sectional curvature are proved for almost Hermitian manifolds. It is shown, that an almost Hermitian manifold satisfying the axiom of antiholomorphic…

Following our previous work, we develop an algorithm to compute a presentation of the fundamental group of certain partial compactifications of the complement of a complex arrangement of lines in the projective plane. It applies, in…

A spectral sequence calculating the homology groups of some spaces of maps equivariant under compact group actions is described. For the main example, we calculate the rational homology groups of spaces of even and odd maps $S^m \to S^M$,…
