On Hyperbolic Groups with Spheres as Boundary
Let G be a torsion-free hyperbolic group and let n ≥ 6 be an integer. We prove that G is the fundamental group of a closed aspherical manifold if the boundary of G is homeomorphic to an (n − 1)-dimensional sphere.
متن کاملHyperbolic groups with 1-dimensional boundary
If a torsion-free hyperbolic group G has 1-dimensional boundary ∂∞G, then ∂∞G is a Menger curve or a Sierpinski carpet provided G does not split over a cyclic group. When ∂∞G is a Sierpinski carpet we show that G is a quasiconvex subgroup of a 3-dimensional hyperbolic Poincaré duality group. We also construct a “topologically rigid” hyperbolic group G: any homeomorphism of ∂∞G is induced by an ...
متن کاملBoundary Amenability of Relatively Hyperbolic Groups
Let K be a fine hyperbolic graph and Γ be a group acting on K with finite quotient. We prove that Γ is exact provided that all vertex stabilizers are exact. In particular, a relatively hyperbolic group is exact if all its peripheral groups are exact. We prove this by showing that the group Γ acts amenably on a compact topological space. We include some applications to the theories of group von ...

متن کاملSpheres and hyperbolic spaces
The group-invariant geometry on real and complex n-balls is hyperbolic geometry, in the sense that there are infinitely many straight lines (geodesics) through a given point not on a given straight line, thus contravening the parallel postulate for Euclidean geometry. We will not directly consider geometric notions, since the transitive group action determines structure in a more useful form. S...
