Distortion of malnormal subgroup of hyperbolic groups
Let $G$ be a countable, Gromov-hyperbolic group.
We say that $H$ is hyperbolically embedded in $G$ if $G$ is relatively hyperbolic to {$H$} (in the strong sense). This definition …

Geometric effects of removing elements of D2n generalizable?
So, if I start with a full Dihedral group D2n to represent a regular, ideal polygon in the hyperbolic plane, then I remove an element (and any subsequently necessary elements so th …

Hyperbolic pair of pants.
Suppose $Y$ is a pair of pants with a hyperbolic structure and $\gamma_i; i = 1, 2, 3$ are the geodesic boundaries of length $l_i; i=1, 2, 3$ respectively. Now consider a essential …

Why isn’t $\langle x,y,z|xyzx^{-1}y^{-1}z^{-1}\rangle$ a hyperbolic surface group?
The group mentioned in the title, $\langle x,y,z|xyzx^{-1}y^{-1}z^{-1}=1\rangle$, is in between the torus fundamental group $\langle x,y|xyx^{-1}y^{-1}=1\rangle$ and the two-holed …

Do quasi convex hyperbolic subgroups remain quasi convex after adding redundant generators?
We know now that hyperbolic 3-manifolds virtually embed into right-angled Artin groups as quasiconvex subgroups. Also, quasiconvexity depends on the generating set.
I have been co …

An action or two of $SL_2(\Bbb Z)$?
$SL_2(\Bbb Z)$ acts on ${\Bbb R}^2$ fixing set-wise ${\Bbb Z}^2$, so $SL_2(\Bbb Z)$ acts on
${\Bbb R}^2\setminus {\Bbb Z}^2$, and then on the universal covering space of ${\Bbb R} …

How does hyperbolicity of space time affect our lives?
My main research has been in hyperbolic geometry and geometric group theory. I always thought that the only real "application" of my work was that the universe is a 3-manifold.
