DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/GaTO/132/">A
  non-acylindrically hyperbolic Morse local-to-global group</a>\nby Carolyn
  Abbott (Brandeis University) as part of Geometry and topology online\n\nL
 ecture held in Room B3.02 in the Zeeman Building\, University of Warwick.\
 n\nAbstract\nHyperbolic spaces satisfy two defining properties: every geod
 esic is Morse\, and every local quasi-geodesic (on a sufficiently large lo
 cal scale) is a global quasi-geodesic. In non-hyperbolic spaces\, some geo
 desics may be Morse and others not\, and local quasi- geodesics may or may
  not be global quasi-geodesics. Intuitively\, the Morse geodesics pick out
  the “hyperbolic-like” directions in the space. Morse local-to-global 
 (MLTG) spaces generalize hyperbolic spaces by requiring that the local-to-
 global property for hyperbolic spaces holds for all Morse elements. MLTG g
 roups (groups whose Cayley graph is a MLTG space) include hyperbolic group
 s\, Zn\, many classes of Artin groups\, including right-angled\, mapping c
 lass groups\, and groups hyperbolic relative to MLTG groups. All known exa
 mples that contain a Morse element are acylindrically hyperbolic\; in ligh
 t of which Russell\, Spriano\, and Tran asked whether this was always the 
 case. In this talk\, I’ll explain why the answer to this question is no 
 by describing the construction of a non-acylindrically hyperbolic MLTG gro
 up with a Morse element. Along the way\, I’ll describe how to generalize
  several techniques from small cancellation groups to general finitely gen
 erated groups. \n\nThis is joint work with Stefanie Zbinden.\n
