Abstract

We initiate systematic study of EZ-structures (and associated boundaries) of groups acting on spaces that admit consistent and conical (equivalently, consistent and convex) geodesic bicombings. Such spaces recently drew a lot of attention due to the fact that many classical groups act `nicely' on them. We rigorously construct EZ-structures, discuss their uniqueness (up to homeomorphism), provide examples, and prove some boundary-related features analogous to the ones exhibited by CAT(0) spaces and groups, which form a subclass of the discussed class of spaces and groups.
