We study the general theory of asymptotically CAT(0) groups, explaining why such a group has finitely many conjugacy classes of finite subgroups, is $F_infty$ and has solvable word problem. We provide techniques to combine asymptotically CAT(0) groups via direct products, amalgams and HNN extensions. The universal cover of the Lie group $PSL(2,mathbb{R})$ is shown to be an asymptotically CAT(0) metric space. Therefore, co-compact lattices in $widetilde{PSL(2,mathbb{R})}$ provide the first examples of asymptotically CAT(0) groups which are neither CAT(0) nor hyperbolic. Another source of examples is shown to be the class of relatively hyperbolic groups.

In this work we introduce a new combinatorial notion of boundary $Re C$ of an $omega$-dimensional cubing $C$. $Re C$ is defined to be the set of almost-equality classes of ultrafilters on the standard system of halfspaces of $C$, endowed with an orde
r relation reflecting the interaction between the Tychonoff closures of the classes. When $C$ arises as the dual of a cubulation -- or discrete system of halfspaces -- $HH$ of a CAT(0) space $X$ (for example, the Niblo-Reeves cubulation of the Davis-Moussong complex of a finite rank Coxeter group), we show how $HH$ induces a function $rho:bd XtoRe C$. We develop a notion of uniformness for $HH$, generalizing the parallel walls property enjoyed by Coxeter groups, and show that, if the pair $(X,HH)$ admits a geometric action by a group $G$, then the fibers of $rho$ form a stratification of $bd X$ graded by the order structure of $Re C$. We also show how this structure computes the components of the Tits boundary of $X$. Finally, using our result from another paper, that the uniformness of a cubulation as above implies the local finiteness of $C$, we give a condition for the co-compactness of the action of $G$ on $C$ in terms of $rho$, generalizing a result of Williams, previously known only for Coxeter groups.
We show that any split extension of a right-angled Coxeter group $W_{Gamma}$ by a generating automorphism of finite order acts faithfully and geometrically on a $mathrm{CAT}(0)$ metric space.
We discuss a problem posed by Gersten: Is every automatic group which does not contain Z+Z subgroup, hyperbolic? To study this question, we define the notion of n-tracks of length n, which is a structure like Z+Z, and prove its existence in the non-h
yperbolic automatic groups with mild conditions. As an application, we show that if a group acts effectively, cellularly, properly discontinuously and cocompactly on a CAT(0) cube complex and its quotient is weakly special, then the above question is answered affirmatively.
We study uniform exponential growth of groups acting on CAT(0) cube complexes. We show that groups acting without global fixed points on CAT(0) square complexes either have uniform exponential growth or stabilize a Euclidean subcomplex. This generali
zes the work of Kar and Sageev considers free actions. Our result lets us show uniform exponential growth for certain groups that act improperly on CAT(0) square complexes, namely, finitely generated subgroups of the Higman group and triangle-free Artin groups. We also obtain that non-virtually abelian groups acting freely on CAT(0) cube complexes of any dimension with isolated flats that admit a geometric group action have uniform exponential growth.
We study abstract group actions of locally compact Hausdorff groups on CAT(0) spaces. Under mild assumptions on the action we show that it is continuous or has a global fixed point. This mirrors results by Dudley and Morris-Nickolas for actions on tr
ees. As a consequence we obtain a geometric proof for the fact that any abstract group homomorphism from a locally compact Hausdorff group into a torsion free CAT(0) group is continuous.
