Summary
This is a summary, written by the first-named author, of his joint work with Ross Geoghegan over the past years. Most of the material is available in detail in the preprint “Limit sets for modules over groups on cat(0) spaces – from the Euclidean to the hyperbolic,” available at http://arxiv.org/abs/1306.3403, and I will occasionally refer to specific detail in that paper. Other parts of our joint work - results mostly concerned with extending concepts and results from that paper to higher dimensions – will also be mentioned but are still in preparation.
