Boundaries of right-angled hyperbolic buildings

Jan Dymara, Damian Osajda (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that the boundary of a right-angled hyperbolic building is a universal Menger space. As a consequence, the 3-dimensional universal Menger space is the boundary of some Gromov-hyperbolic group.

Isometries of systolic spaces

Tomasz Elsner (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We provide a classification of isometries of systolic complexes corresponding to the classification of isometries of CAT(0)-spaces. We prove that any isometry of a systolic complex either fixes the barycentre of some simplex (elliptic case) or stabilizes a thick geodesic (hyperbolic case). This leads to an alternative proof of the fact that finitely generated abelian subgroups of systolic groups are undistorted.

Legendrian dual surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space

Kentaro Saji, Handan Yıldırım (2015)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We consider surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space and their duals. We study flat dual surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space by using extended Legendrian dualities between pseudo-hyperspheres in Lorentz-Minkowski 4-space. We define the flatness of a surface in hyperbolic 3-space by the degeneracy of its dual, which is similar to the case of the Gauss map of a surface in Euclidean 3-space. Such surfaces are a kind of ruled surfaces. Moreover, we investigate the singularities of these surfaces and the...
