An extended definition of Anosov representation for relatively hyperbolic groups
Abstract We define a new family of discrete representations of relatively hyperbolic groups which unifies many existing definitions and examples of geometrically finite behavior in higher rank. The definition includes the relative Anosov representations defined by Kapovich–Leeb and Zhu, and Zhu–Zimmer, as well as holonomy representations of various ...

Towards the boundary of the fine curve graph
Abstract The fine curve graph was introduced as a geometric tool to study homeomorphisms of surfaces. In this paper, we study the Gromov boundary of this space and the local topology near points associated with certain foliations and laminations. We then give several applications including finding dynamically explicit elements with positive stable ...

The quasi‐redirecting boundary
Abstract We generalize the notion of Gromov boundary to a larger class of metric spaces beyond Gromov hyperbolic spaces. Points in this boundary are classes of quasi‐geodesic rays and the space is equipped with a topology that is naturally invariant under quasi‐isometries.

Degree theory for 4‐dimensional asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons
Abstract We develop a new degree theory for 4‐dimensional, asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons. Our theory implies the existence of gradient expanding solitons that are asymptotic to any given cone over S3$S^3$ with non‐negative scalar curvature. We also obtain a similar existence result for cones whose link is diffeomorphic to S3/Γ$S^3/\

Graphical small cancellation and hyperfiniteness of boundary actions
Abstract We study actions of (infinitely presented) graphical small cancellation groups on the Gromov boundaries of their coned‐off Cayley graphs. We show that a class of graphical small cancellation groups, including (infinitely presented) classical small cancellation groups, admit hyperfinite boundary actions, more precisely, the orbit equivalence ...

Circle packings, renormalizations, and subdivision rules
Abstract In this paper, we use iterations of skinning maps on Teichmüller spaces to study circle packings and develop a renormalization theory for circle packings whose nerves satisfy certain subdivision rules. We characterize when the skinning map has bounded image.

Limits of cubic differentials and buildings
Abstract In the Labourie–Loftin parameterization of the Hitchin component of surface group representations into SL(3,R)$\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb {R})$, we prove an asymptotic formula for holonomy along rays in terms of local invariants of the holomorphic differential defining that ray.

Graph potentials and topological quantum field theories
Abstract We introduce a new functional equation in birational geometry, whose solutions can be used to construct two‐dimensional topological quantum field theories (2d TQFTs), infinite‐dimensional in many interesting examples. The solutions of the equation give rise to a hierarchy of graph potentials, which, in the simplest setup, are Laurent ...
