We call a finitely generated group lacunary hyperbolic if one of its asymptotic cones is an R-tree. We characterize lacunary hyperbolic groups as direct limits of Gromov hyperbolic groups satisfying certain restrictions on the hyperbolicity constants and injectivity radii. Using central extensions of lacunary hyperbolic groups, we solve a problem of Gromov by constructing a group whose asymptot...

متن کاملTree-graded spaces and asymptotic cones of groups
We introduce a concept of tree-graded metric space and we use it to show quasi-isometry invariance of certain classes of relatively hyperbolic groups, to obtain a characterization of relatively hyperbolic groups in terms of their asymptotic cones, to find geometric properties of Cayley graphs of relatively hyperbolic groups, and to construct the first example of finitely generated group with a ...
متن کاملAsymptotic Cones of Finitely Presented Groups
Let G be a connected semisimple Lie group with at least one absolutely simple factor S such that R-rank(S) ≥ 2 and let Γ be a uniform lattice in G. (a) If CH holds, then Γ has a unique asymptotic cone up to homeomorphism. (b) If CH fails, then Γ has 2 ω asymptotic cones up to homeomorphism.
متن کاملHigher connectedness of asymptotic cones
We give coarse geometric conditions for a metric space X to have N -connected asymptotic cones. These conditions are expressed in terms of certain filling functions concerning filling N -spheres in an appropriate coarse sense. We interpret the criteria in the case where X is a finitely generated group Γ with a word metric. This leads to upper bounds on filling functions for groups with simply c...
