Strong hyperbolicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We propose the metric notion of strong hyperbolicity as a way of obtaining hyperbolicity with sharp additional properties. Specifically, strongly hyperbolic spaces are Gromov hyperbolic spaces that are metrically well-behaved at infinity, and, under weak

On the Cut Number of a 3-manifold

open access: yes, 2002
The question was raised as to whether the cut number of a 3-manifold X is bounded from below by 1/3 beta_1(X). We show that the answer to this question is `no.' For each m>0, we construct explicit examples of closed 3-manifolds X with beta_1(X)=m and cut

The strong profinite genus of a finitely presented group can be infinite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We construct the first example of a finitely-presented, residually-finite group that contains an infinite sequence of non-isomorphic finitely-presented subgroups such that each of the inclusion maps induces an isomorphism of profinite completions.Comment:

Quasi-isometries need not induce homeomorphisms of contracting boundaries with the Gromov product topology

open access: yes, 2016
We consider a `contracting boundary' of a proper geodesic metric space consisting of equivalence classes of geodesic rays that behave like geodesics in a hyperbolic space.

Erratum for "The degree theorem in higher rank" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The purpose of this erratum is to correct a mistake in the proof of Theorem 4.1 of our paper \cite{CF}.Comment: Minor revisions suggested by ...

Virtually splitting the map from Aut(G) to Out(G)

open access: yes, 2013
We give an elementary criterion on a group G for the map from Aut(G) to Out(G) to split virtually. This criterion applies to many residually finite CAT(0) groups and hyperbolic groups, and in particular to all finitely generated Coxeter groups.

Contractibility of boundaries of cocompact convex sets and embeddings of limit sets

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces
We provide sufficient conditions as to when a boundary component of a cocompact convex set in a CAT(0){\rm{CAT}}\left(0)-space is contractible. We then use this to study when the limit set of a quasi-convex, codimension one subgroup of a negatively ...

On a question of Bumagin and Wise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Motivated by a question of Bumagin and Wise, we construct a continuum of finitely generated, residually finite groups whose outer automorphism groups are pairwise non-isomorphic finitely generated, non-recursively-presentable groups.

Every finite complex has the homology of some CAT(0) cubical duality group [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We prove that every finite connected simplicial complex has the homology of the classifying space for some $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ cubical duality group. More specifically, for any finite simplicial complex $X$, we construct a locally $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ cubical
