We prove that for any finitely generated relatively hyperbolic group G and any symmetric endomorphism f of G with relatively quasiconvex image, Fixf is relatively quasiconvex subgroup of G.

Let $Sp(2,1)$ be the isometry group of the quaternionic hyperbolic plane ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^2$. An element $g$ in $Sp(2,1)$ is `hyperbolic' if it fixes exactly two points on the boundary of ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^2$. We classify pairs…

In this paper we provide a procedure to obtain a non-trivial HHS structure on a hyperbolic space. In particular, we prove that given a finite collection $\mathcal{F}$ of quasi-convex subgroups of a hyperbolic group $G$, there is an HHG…

Gromov asked whether every one-ended word-hyperbolic group contains a hyperbolic surface group. We prove that every one-ended double of a free group has a hyperbolic surface subgroup if (1) the free group has rank two, or (2) every…

We prove the following boundary-theoretic characterization of relatively hyperbolic groups. Let $G$ be a finitely generated group with a finite collection $\mathcal{H}$ of finitely generated subgroups, and let $G^h$ denote the associated…

Let $H$ be an acylindrically hyperbolic group without nontrivial finite normal subgroups. We show that any finite system $S$ of equations with constants from $H$ is equivalent to a single equation. We also show that the algebraic set…

Let $\Phi:F\rightarrow F$ be an automorphism of the finite-rank free group $F$. Suppose that $G=F\rtimes_\Phi\mathbb Z$ is word-hyperbolic. Then $G$ acts freely and cocompactly on a CAT(0) cube complex.

We provide a general sufficient condition for extendability of quasimorphisms on subgroups. This condition recovers the result of Hull--Osin on quasimorphisms on hyperbolically embedded subgroups, and the proof given in this paper is much…

A symplectic form is called hyperbolic if its pull-back to the universal cover is a differential of a bounded one-form. The present paper is concerned with the properties and constructions of manifolds admitting hyperbolic symplectic forms.…

For any $\varepsilon>0$, we construct a closed hyperbolic surface of genus $g=g(\varepsilon)$ with a set of at most $\varepsilon g$ systoles that fill, meaning that each component of the complement of their union is contractible. This…

In this paper we consider a large family of graphs of hierarchically hyperbolic groups (HHG) and show that their fundamental groups admit HHG structures. To do that, we will investigate the notion of hierarchical quasi convexity and show…

We classify the boundaries of hyperbolic groups that have enough quasiconvex codimension-1 surface subgroups with trivial or cyclic intersections.

For any finitely generated, non-elementary, torsion-free group $G$ that is hyperbolic relative to $\mathbb P$, we show that there exists a group $G^*$ containing $G$ such that $G^*$ is hyperbolic relative to $\mathbb P$ and $G$ is not…

A word hyperbolic group $G$ is called GFERF if every quasiconvex subgroup coincides with the intersection of finite index subgroups containing it. We show that in any such group, the product of finitely many quasiconvex subgroups is closed…

We show that if H is a non-elementary hyperbolic commensurated subgroup of infinite index in a hyperbolic group G, then H is virtually a free product of hyperbolic surface groups and free groups. We prove that whenever a one-ended…
