Hyperbolic fillings of bounded metric spaces

Sammanfattning: The aim of this thesis is to expand on parts of the work of Björn–Björn–Shanmugalingam [2] and in particular on the construction and properties of hyperbolic fillings of nonempty bounded metric spaces. In light of [2], we introduce two new parameters λ and ξ to the construction while relaxing a specific maximal-condition. With these modifications we obtain a slightly more flexible model that generates a larger family of hyperbolic fillings. We then show that every hyperbolic filling in this family possess the desired property of being Gromov hyperbolic. Next, we uniformize an arbitrary hyperbolic filling of this type and show that, under fairly weak conditions, the boundary of the uniformization is snowflake-equivalent to the completion of the metric space it corresponds to. Finally, we show that this unifomized hyperbolic filling is a uniform space. In summary, our construction generates hyperbolic fillings which satisfy the necessary conditions for it to serve its intended purpose of an analytical tool for further studies in [2, Chapters 9-13 ] or similar. As such, it can be regarded as an improvement to the reference model.
