Boundaries of Baumslag–Solitar groups

Craig R Guilbault, Molly A Moran and Carrie J Tirel

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 19 (2019) 2077–2097
Abstract

A Z–structure on a group G was introduced by Bestvina in order to extend the notion of a group boundary beyond the realm of CAT(0) and hyperbolic groups. A refinement of this notion, introduced by Farrell and Lafont, includes a G–equivariance requirement, and is known as an Z–structure. The general questions of which groups admit Z– or Z–structures remain open. Here we show that all Baumslag–Solitar groups admit Z–structures and all generalized Baumslag–Solitar groups admit Z–structures.
