Distinguishing Gromov-Thurston manifolds using algebraic Dehn fillings
Alessandro Sisto, Gabriele Viaggi
We develop criteria to distinguish the homotopy types of Gromov-Thurston manifolds. Our approach is based on a description of their fundamental groups as virtual Dehn fillings of r…
Cusped spaces for hierarchically hyperbolic groups, and applications to Dehn filling quotients
Giorgio Mangioni, Alessandro Sisto
We introduce a construction that simultaneously yields cusped spaces of relatively hyperbolic groups, and spaces quasi-isometric to Teichmueller metrics. We use this to study Dehn-…
Drilling hyperbolic groups
Daniel Groves, Peter Haïssinsky, Jason F. Manning +3
Given a hyperbolic group and a maximal infinite cyclic subgroup , we define a {\it drilling of along }, which is a relatively hyperbolic group pair $(…
Non-solutions to mixed equations in acylindrically hyperbolic groups coming from random walks
Henry Bradford, Alessandro Sisto
A mixed equation in a group is given by a non-trivial element of the free product , and a solution is some such that is the identity.…
Cohomological characterisation of hyperbolicity
Francesco Milizia, Nansen Petrosyan, Alessandro Sisto +1
For any geodesic metric space , we give a complete cohomological characterisation of the hyperbolicity of in terms of vanishing of its second -cohomology. We…
Power quotients of surface groups and mapping class groups
Rémi Coulon, Alessandro Sisto, Henry Wilton
Let be the fundamental group of a closed, orientable, hyperbolic surface . The -power quotient, , is the quotient of by the th powers of simple closed cur…
