The quasi‐redirecting boundary

We generalize the notion of Gromov boundary to a larger class of metric spaces beyond Gromov hyperbolic spaces. Points in this boundary are classes of quasi‐geodesic rays and the space is equipped with a topology that is naturally invariant under quasi‐isometries. It turns out that this boundary is compatible with other notions of boundary in many ways; it contains the sublinearly Morse boundary as a topological subspace and it matches the Bowditch boundary of relative hyperbolic spaces when the peripheral subgroups have no intrinsic hyperbolicity. We also give a complete description of the boundary of the Croke–Kleiner group where the quasi‐redirecting boundary reveals a new class of QI‐invariant, Morse‐like quasi‐geodesics.
