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.

Some generalized Coxeter groups and their orbifolds.

Marcel Hagelberg, Rubén A. Hidalgo (1997)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

Similarity:

In this note we construct examples of geometric 3-orbifolds with (orbifold) fundamental group isomorphic to a (Z-extension of a) generalized Coxeter group. Some of these orbifolds have either euclidean, spherical or hyperbolic structure. As an application, we obtain an alternative proof of theorem 1 of Hagelberg, Maclaughlan and Rosenberg in [5]. We also obtain a similar result for generalized Coxeter groups.
