Hyperbolic groups with low-dimensional boundary

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: If a torsion-free hyperbolic group G has 1-dimensional boundary, then the boundary is a Menger curve or a Sierpinski carpet provided G does not split over a cyclic group. When the boundary of G is a Sierpinski carpet we show that G is a quasi-convex subgroup of a 3-dimensional hyperbolic Poincare duality group. We also construct a ``topologically rigid hyperbolic group G: any homeomorphism of the boundary of G is induced by an element of G.
