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-…

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 curves…

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…

Effective hyperbolization and length bounds for Heegaard splittings

Peter Feller, Alessandro Sisto, Gabriele Viaggi

We consider 3-manifolds given as Heegaard splittings with the aim to describe the hyperbolic metric of under topological conditions on the splitting guaranteei…

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 $(…
