We prove that the curve graph $\calC^{(1)}(S)$ is Gromov-hyperbolic with a constant of hyperbolicity independent of the surface $S$. The proof is based on the proof of hyperbolicity of the free splitting complex by Handel and Mosher, as…

We show that the graphs of nonseparating curves for oriented finite type surfaces are uniformly hyperbolic. Our proof follows the proof of uniform hyperbolicity of the graphs of curves for closed surfaces due to Przytycki-Sisto, while…

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…

In this paper, we prove uniform lower bounds on the volume growth of balls in the universal covers of Riemannian surfaces and graphs. More precisely, there exists a constant $\delta>0$ such that if $(M,hyp)$ is a closed hyperbolic surface…

The fine curve graph of a surface is a graph whose vertices are essential simple closed curves and whose edges connect disjoint curves. Following a rich history of hyperbolicity of various graphs associated to surfaces, the fine curve graph…

We prove that the separating curve graph of a connected, compact, orientable surface with genus at least 3 and a single boundary component is not relatively hyperbolic. This completes the classification of when the separating curve graph is…

We show that a relatively hyperbolic graph with uniformly hyperbolic peripheral subgraphs is hyperbolic. As an application, we show that the disc graph and the electrified disc graph of a handlebody H of genus g>1 are hyperbolic, and we…

A proof that the separating curve complex of the closed genus two surface has a quasi-distance formula and is delta hyperbolic using tools of Masur and Schleimer. This answers in the affirmative a Conjecture of Schleimer.

We study a finite sequence of graphs, beginning with the curve graph and ending with a graph quasi-isometric to a tree. There is a Lipschitz map from one graph in the sequence to the next. This sequence was first introduced by Hamenst\"adt.…

The Complex of Curves on a Surface is a simplicial complex whose vertices are homotopy classes of simple closed curves, and whose simplices are sets of homotopy classes which can be realized disjointly. It is not hard to see that the…

We investigate oriented graphs based on the curve complex $C(S)$ of a closed surface $S$ and induced by functions on the vertex set of $C(S)$. In particular, we introduce the Dehn quasi-homothetic functions, which behave similarly to…

This paper focuses on using the theory of bicorn curves in the context of closed surfaces to understand hyperbolic phenomena of the curve graphs of those surfaces. We prove that the curve graph of any closed surface is 15-hyperbolic with…

We give a combinatorial proof, using the hyperbolicity of the curve graphs, of the bounded geodesic image theorem of Masur and Minsky. Recently it has been shown that curve graphs are uniformly hyperbolic, thus a universal bound can be…

Let $N$ be a connected finite type nonorientable surface with or without boundary components and punctures. We prove that the graph of nonseparating curves of $N$ is connected and Gromov hyperbolic with a constant which does not depend on…

Let $\Sigma$ be a hyperbolic surface. We study the set of curves on $\Sigma$ of a given type, i.e. in the mapping class group orbit of some fixed but otherwise arbitrary $\gamma_0$. For example, in the particular case that $\Sigma$ is a…

Let $G$ be a connected graph with the usual shortest-path metric $d$. The graph $G$ is $\delta$-hyperbolic provided for any vertices $x,y,u,v$ in it, the two larger of the three sums $d(u,v)+d(x,y),d(u,x)+d(v,y)$ and $d(u,y)+d(v,x)$ differ…

Let $S_{g,n}$ be a surface of genus $g $ with $n$ marked points. Let $X$ be a complete hyperbolic metric on $S_{g,n}$ with $n$ cusps. Every isotopy class $[\gamma]$ of a closed curve $\gamma \in \pi_{1}(S_{g,n})$ contains a unique closed…

A non-separating multicurve of a surface S of genus g with m punctures is a multicurve c so that S-c is connected. For k>0 define the graph of non-separting k-multicurves to be the graph whose vertices are non-separating multicurves with k…

We find an upper bound for the asymptotic dimension of a hyperbolic metric space with a set of geodesics satisfying a certain boundedness condition studied by Bowditch. The primary example is a collection of tight geodesics on the curve…

If X is a geodesic metric space and $x_1,x_2,x_3\in X$, a {\it geodesic triangle} $T=\{x_1,x_2,x_3\}$ is the union of the three geodesics $[x_1x_2]$, $[x_2x_3]$ and $[x_3x_1]$ in $X$. The space $X$ is $\delta$-\emph{hyperbolic} $($in the…
