Groups Quasi-isometric to Complex Hyperbolic Space
We show that any finitely generated group quasi-isometric to complex hyperbolic space is a finite extension of a properly discontinuous, cocompact subgroup of the isometry group.
متن کاملComplex hyperbolic quasi-Fuchsian groups
A complex hyperbolic quasi-Fuchsian group is a discrete, faithful, type preserving and geometrically finite representation of a surface group as a subgroup of the group of holomorphic isometries of complex hyperbolic space. Such groups are direct complex hyperbolic generalisations of quasi-Fuchsian groups in three dimensional (real) hyperbolic geometry. In this article we present the current st...
متن کاملRelatively hyperbolic groups: geometry and quasi-isometric invariance
In this paper it is proved that relative hyperbolicity is an invariant of quasi-isometry. As a byproduct we provide simplified definitions of relative hyperbolicity in terms of the geometry of a Cayley graph. In particular we obtain a definition very similar to the one of hyperbolicity, relying on the existence for every quasi-geodesic triangle of a central left coset of peripheral subgroup.
متن کاملGroups quasi-isometric to H² x R
The most powerful geometric tools are those of differential geometry, but to apply such techniques to finitely generated groups seems hopeless at first glance since the natural metric on a finitely generated group is discrete. However Gromov recognized that a group can metrically resemble a manifold in such a way that geometric results about that manifold carry over to the group [18, 20]. This ...
متن کاملQuasi-isometric rigidity of solvable groups
In this article we survey recent progress on quasi-isometric rigidity of polycyclic groups. These results are contributions to Gromov’s program for classifying finitely generated groups up to quasi-isometry [Gr2]. The results discussed here rely on a new technique for studying quasi-isometries of finitely generated groups, which we refer to as coarse differentiation. We include a discussion of ...
