About
Regular biography

Jason Manning is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Cornell University. His research focuses on geometric group theory and geometric topology, with an emphasis on the study of infinite discrete groups through their actions on metric spaces, particularly negatively curved (hyperbolic) spaces. His work also engages with the topology and geometry of 3-manifolds. Manning's research includes topics such as fillings of hyperbolic manifolds, residual finiteness, and algorithmic detection of hyperbolic structures. He teaches courses in topology and supervised research at both undergraduate and graduate levels.


Scholar profile summary
Scholar-generated biography

Jason Fox Manning is a mathematician specializing in geometric group theory and geometric topology. His research focuses on the interplay between group actions, hyperbolic geometry, and 3-manifold topology. He has contributed to the study of Dehn fillings, quasi-isometric embeddings, and the virtual Haken conjecture. His work explores properties such as residual finiteness, QCERF, and the structure of relatively hyperbolic groups. Manning's publications often address the geometry of pseudocharacters, simplicial volume, and the classification of hyperbolic manifolds. His research has implications for understanding the boundaries of hyperbolic spaces and the actions of arithmetic groups.
