A Boundary Criterion for Cubulation
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a criterion in terms of the boundary for the existence of a proper cocompact action of a word-hyperbolic group on a CAT(0) cube complex. We describe applications towards lattices and hyperbolic 3-manifold groups. In particular, by combining the theory of special cube complexes, the surface subgroup result of Kahn-Markovic, and Agol’s criterion, we find that every subgroup separable closed hyperbolic 3-manifold is virtually fibered.

Coarse decompositions for boundaries of CAT(0) groups
In this work we introduce a new combinatorial notion of boundary <C of an ω-dimensional cubing C. <C is defined to be the set of almost-equality classes of ultrafilters on the standard system of halfspaces of C, endowed with an order relation reflecting the interaction between the Tychonoff closures of the classes. When C arises as the dual of a cubulation – or discrete system of halfspaces – H...
متن کاملLocal finiteness of cubulations for CAT(0) groups
Let X be a proper CAT(0) space. A halfspace system (or cubulation) of X is a set H of open halfspaces closed under h 7→ X r h and such that every x ∈ X has a neighbourhood intersecting only finitely many walls of H. Given a cubulation H, one uses the Sageev-Roller construction to form a cubing C(H). One setting in which cubulations were studied is that of a Coxeter group (W,R) acting on its Dav...
متن کاملFeature extraction of hyperspectral images using boundary semi-labeled samples and hybrid criterion
Feature extraction is a very important preprocessing step for classification of hyperspectral images. The linear discriminant analysis (LDA) method fails to work in small sample size situations. Moreover, LDA has poor efficiency for non-Gaussian data. LDA is optimized by a global criterion. Thus, it is not sufficiently flexible to cope with the multi-modal distributed data. We propose a new fea...
متن کاملOn the crack propagation modeling of hydraulic fracturing by a hybridized displacement discontinuity/boundary collocation method
Numerical methods such as boundary element and finite element methods are widely used for the stress analysis in solid mechanics. This study presents boundary element method based on the displacement discontinuity formulation to solve general problems of interaction between hydraulic fracturing and discontinuities. The crack tip element and a higher order boundary displacement collocation techn...
متن کاملEffect of Boundary Condition on Pre-Existing Crack Under Fatigue Loading
In this paper, the present investigation has been conducted keeping in mind some of the problems concerning the crack propagation direction and growth under constant loading in an inclined crack geometry. The present studies mainly focused on the development and modifications in the crack growth criterion to account the biaxial, shear loading and number of stress terms. Existing criteria for th...
