Negatively Curved Groups and the Convergence Property Ii: Transitivity in Negatively Curved Groups
Let G be a negatively curved group. This paper continues the classiication of limit points of G that began in part I. A probability measure is constructed on the space at innnity and with respect to this measure almost every point at innnity is shown to be line transitive.
متن کاملNegatively Curved Groups
The notion of a negatively curved group is at first highly non-intuitive because it links two areas of mathematics that are not usually associated with one another. Curvature is generally a property that we associate with geometric objects like curves or surfaces in R, while a group is an algebraic structure that we associate with objects like integers or matrices. However, there is a way to de...
متن کاملStatement Qian Yin 1 Introduction
My research interests lie in the areas of dynamical systems and geometry of negatively curved spaces. My thesis is on the dynamics of expanding Thurston maps, and the negatively curved spaces induced by these maps. A dynamical system describes the time dependence of the position of a point in its ambient space under some fixed law. This law describes the evolution of the state of the system ove...
متن کاملFixed Points in Boundaries of Negatively Curved Groups
An important feature of the natural action of a negatively curved (= word hyperbolic) group on its boundary is that the xed points of hyperbolic (= innnite order) elements form a dense subset of the boundary. Gromov states this in his innuential treatise Hyperbolic Groups 4, 8.2 D] and his explanation involves Stalling's theorem on groups with innnitely many ends. This short note provides an el...
