Abstract: For n>6, we show that if G is a torsion-free hyperbolic group whose visual boundary is an (n-2)-dimensional Sierpinski space, then G=pi_1(W) for some aspherical n-manifold W with nonempty boundary. Concerning the converse, we construct, for each n>3, examples of aspherical manifolds with boundary, whose fundamental group G is hyperbolic, but with visual boundary not homeomorphic to an (n-2)-dimensional Sierpinski space.
