Convergence and collapsing of CAT-lattices
Nicola Cavallucci, Andrea Sambusetti
We study the theory of convergence for CAT-lattices (that is groups acting geometrically on proper, geodesically complete CAT-spaces) and their quotients (CAT-or…
Thin actions on CAT(0) spaces
Nicola Cavallucci, Andrea Sambusetti
We study groups of isometries of packed, geodesically complete, CAT-spaces for which the systole at every point is smaller than a universal constant depending only on the pack…
Finiteness Theorems for Gromov-Hyperbolic Spaces and Groups
Gérard Besson, Gilles Courtois, Sylvestre Gallot +1
In this article we prove that the set of torsion-free groups acting by isometries on a hyperbolic metric space whose entropy is bounded above and with a compact quotient is finite.…
Packing and doubling in metric spaces with curvature bounded above
Nicola Cavallucci, Andrea Sambusetti
We study locally compact, locally geodesically complete, locally CAT(k) spaces (GCBA(k)-spaces). We prove a Croke-type local volume estimate only depending on the dimension of thes…
Entropy Rigidity of negatively curved manifolds of finite volume
M. Peigne, A. Sambusetti
We prove the following entropy-rigidity result in finite volume: if is a negatively curved manifold with curvature , then if and only…
