Uniformization of intrinsic Gromov hyperbolic spaces

Vasudevarao Allu, Alan P Jose

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to provide a uniformization procedure for Gromov hyperbolic spaces, which need not be geodesic or proper. We prove that the conformal deformation of a Gromov hyperbolic space is a bounded uniform space. Further, we show that there is a natural quasi-isometry between the Gromov boundary and the metric boundary of the deformed space. Our main results are a generalization of the results of Bonk, Heninonen, and Koskela [Proposition 4.5, Proposition 4.13, Astérisque 270 (2001)].

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

The conformal deformations $X_\epsilon = \left(X, d_\epsilon\right)$ of a proper, geodesic $\delta$-hyperbolic space $X$ are bounded $A(\delta)-$uniform spaces for $0<\epsilon\leq \epsilon_0(\delta)$.
