CAT(0) square complexes that do not embed into finite products of trees

James Davies, Harry Petyt

Answering a question of Chepoi and Hagen, we give two constructions of bounded degree CAT(0) square complexes that cannot be isometrically embedded into any finite product of trees…

Largest acylindrical actions of free-by-cyclic groups

Monika Kudlinska, Harry Petyt

We show that every finitely generated free-by-cyclic group admits a largest acylindrical action on a hyperbolic space obtained by coning off maximal product subgroups of $G…

Stable cylinders and fine structures for hyperbolic groups and curve graphs

Harry Petyt, Davide Spriano, Abdul Zalloum

In 1995, Rips and Sela asked if torsionfree hyperbolic groups admit globally stable cylinders. We establish this property for all residually finite hyperbolic groups and curve grap…

Coarse obstructions to cocompact cubulation

Zachary Munro, Harry Petyt

We provide geometric methods to give bounds on the large-scale dimension of CAT(0) cube complexes quasiisometric to a given group . In situations where these bounds conflict we…

Constructing metric spaces from systems of walls

Harry Petyt, Abdul Zalloum, Davide Spriano

We give a general procedure for constructing metric spaces from systems of partitions. This generalises and provides analogues of Sageev's construction of dual CAT(0) cube complexe…

Induced quasi-isometries of hyperbolic spaces, Markov chains, and acylindrical hyperbolicity

Antoine Goldsborough, Mark Hagen, Harry Petyt +2

We show that quasi-isometries of (well-behaved) hierarchically hyperbolic groups descend to quasi-isometries of their maximal hyperbolic space. This has two applications, one relat…

Uniform undistortion from barycentres, and applications to hierarchically hyperbolic groups

Carolyn Abbott, Mark Hagen, Harry Petyt +1

We show that infinite cyclic subgroups of groups acting uniformly properly on injective metric spaces are uniformly undistorted. In the special case of hierarchically hyperbolic gr…

Hyperbolic models for CAT(0) spaces

Harry Petyt, Davide Spriano, Abdul Zalloum

We introduce two new tools for studying CAT(0) spaces: \emph{curtains}, versions of cubical hyperplanes; and the \emph{curtain model}, a counterpart of the curve graph. These tools…

Projection complexes and quasimedian maps

Mark Hagen, Harry Petyt

We use the projection complex machinery of Bestvina--Bromberg--Fujiwara to study hierarchically hyperbolic groups. In particular, we show that if the group has a BBF colouring and…

Unbounded domains in hierarchically hyperbolic groups

Harry Petyt, Davide Spriano

We investigate unbounded domains in hierarchically hyperbolic groups and obtain constraints on the possible hierarchical structures. Using these insights, we characterise the struc…

Hierarchically hyperbolic groups and uniform exponential growth

Carolyn Abbott, Thomas Ng, Davide Spriano +2

We give several sufficient conditions for uniform exponential growth in the setting of virtually torsion-free hierarchically hyperbolic groups. For example, any hierarchically hype…
