We use a combinatorial approximation of the hyperbolic plane to investigate properties of hyperbolic geometry such as exponential growth of perimeter and area of disks, and the linear isoperimetric inequality. This calculations give a…
We show that a group that is hyperbolic relative to strongly shortcut groups is itself strongly shortcut, thus obtaining new examples of strongly shortcut groups. The proof relies on a result of independent interest: we show that every…
These notes expand upon our lectures on {\em profinite rigidity} at the international colloquium on randomness, geometry and dynamics, organised by TIFR Mumbai at IISER Pune in January 2024. We are interested in the extent to which groups…
We show that many graphs naturally associated to a connected, compact, orientable surface are hierarchically hyperbolic spaces in the sense of Behrstock, Hagen and Sisto. They also automatically have the coarse median property defined by…
We introduce a number of tools for finding and studying \emph{hierarchically hyperbolic spaces (HHS)}, a rich class of spaces including mapping class groups of surfaces, Teichm\"{u}ller space with either the Teichm\"{u}ller or…
We show that quasi-isometries of (well-behaved) hierarchically hyperbolic groups descend to quasi-isometries of their maximal hyperbolic space. This has two applications, one relating to quasi-isometry invariance of acylindrical…
We show that under appropriate assumptions, a blown-up corona of a relatively hyperbolic group is equivariant and the compactification of the universal space for proper action by the blown-up corona is contractible. As a corollary, we…
We obtain an upper bound for relative Dehn functions of amalgamated products and HNN--extensions with respect to certain collections of subgroups. Our main results generalize the combination theorems for relatively hyperbolic groups proved…
The property that the polynomial cohomology with coefficients of a finitely generated discrete group is canonically isomorphic to the group cohomology is called the (weak) isocohomological property for the group. In the case when a group is…
In their first article, the authors initiated a systematic study of hyperbolic $\Lambda$-metric spaces, where $\Lambda$ is an ordered abelian group, and groups acting on such spaces. The present paper concentrates on the case $\Lambda =…
Let S be a closed surface of genus at least 2. We show that a finitely generated group G which is an extension of the fundamental group H of S is word hyperbolic if and only the orbit map of the quotient group G/H on the complex of curves…
Very recently, Kim and Lee presented an example of a non-Hopfian relatively hyperbolic group with a Hopfian peripheral subgroup, demonstrating a counterexample to Osin's well-known question (Problem 5.5). In this paper, we provide a general…
We consider two families of subgroups of a group. Each subgroup which belongs to one family is contained in some subgroup which belongs to the other family. We then discuss relations of relative hyperbolicity for the group with respect to…
In this article, we study acylindrical graphs of groups, local quasiconvexity, and Cannon-Thurston maps in the setting of totally disconnected locally compact (TDLC) hyperbolic groups, extending several fundamental notions and results from…
Let G be a finitely generated relatively hyperbolic group. We show that if no peripheral subgroup of G is hyperbolic relative to a collection of proper subgroups, then the fixed subgroup of every automorphism of G is relatively quasiconvex.…
In this article, we prove a version of Martin and Skora's conjecture that convergence groups on the $2$-sphere are covered by Kleinian groups. Given a relatively hyperbolic group pair $(G,\mathcal{P})$ with planar boundary and no Sierpinski…
Generalising an example by Girondo and Wolfart, we use finite group theory to construct Riemann surfaces admitting two or more regular dessins (i.e. orientably regular hypermaps) with automorphism groups of the same order, and in many cases…
With the aim of deriving symmetric hyperbolic free-evolution systems for GR that possess Hamiltonian structure and allow for the popular puncture gauge condition we analyze the hyperbolicity of Hamiltonian systems. We develop helpful tools…
The interaction between combinatorics and algebraic and differential geometry is very strong. While researching a problem of Hessian topology, we came across a series of identities of binomial coefficients, which are useful for proving a…
We study a class of two dimensional partially hyperbolic systems, not necessarily skew products, trying to establish the germ of a general theory. To illustrate the scope of the theory, we apply our results to the case of fast-slow…
