Propri\'et\'es combinatoires du bord d'un groupe hyperbolique

Abstract

The goal of this survey is to present combinatorial modulus that have been recently used to study quasi-conformal properties of boundaries of hyperbolic groups. First, we will recall well known rigidity results and questions that motivated the introduction of these tools. Then we will define combinatorial modulus and the combinatorial Loewner property that provide new approaches to rigidity questions. Finally, we will describe some applications of these tools through recent results. ----- Le but de ce survol est de pr\'esenter les modules combinatoires r\'ecemment utilis\'es pour \'etudier les propri\'et\'es quasi-conformes des bords des groupes hyperboliques. Dans un premier temps, on rappellera quelques r\'esultats et questions de rigidit\'e bien connus qui ont motiv\'es l'introduction de ces outils. Puis on d\'efinira les modules combinatoires et la propri\'et\'e de L\"owner combinatoire qui offrent une nouvelle approche pour r\'esoudre des probl\`emes ouverts depuis longtemps. Enfin, on d\'ecrira des applications concr\`etes de ces outils \`a travers quelques r\'esultats r\'ecents.

Reversibility and its asymptotic counting in Picard group

We investigate reversible elements in the Picard modular group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z}[i])$. We show that reversibility coincides with strong reversibility for Kleinian groups, in particular for the Picard group. We classify reversible elements in the Picard group and characterize loxodromic reversible elements up to conjugacy. We prove that each such conjugacy class contains exactly eight special representatives. We also obtain asymptotic estimates for the number of reversible conjugacy classes with bounded trace.

Conjugator length in finitely generated groups

We describe all functions $\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ that can be realized, up to the standard equivalence, as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups. Furthermore, we show that any two increasing functions $f,g\colon \mathbb N\to \mathbb N$ can be simultaneously realized as conjugator length functions of finitely generated, commensurable (in particular, quasi-isometric) groups.

The spectrum of conjugator length functions

A recent program tries to find which functions appear as conjugator length functions. In this note, we show that any (computable) increasing function larger than $n$ appears as $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ for some finitely generated (recursively presented) group. On the other hand, we demonstrate that either $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ must be constant or $\mathrm{Cl}_G(n)\succ n$. Combining these, we obtain a complete description of which functions appear as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups.
