What is... hierarchical hyperbolicity?

arXiv:2601.15410

Abstract

This is a very short introduction to hierarchically hyperbolic spaces and groups. It is aimed at non-experts, including anyone who may encounter a group with some similarities to mapping class groups.

Comments are very welcome, both from experts and non-experts, on both mathematical content and exposition. This is intended for submission to the Notices of the American Math Society
