Abstract: The visual boundary is a well-defined compactification of a hyperbolic or CAT(0) space. For hyperbolic groups the boundary is unique up to homeomorphism. However, Croke-Kleiner constructed examples of CAT(0) groups acting geometrically on CAT(0) spaces with non-homeomorphic boundaries. I will discuss the question of the uniqueness of the boundary for groups acting geometrically on product of two trees. This is a wide family of groups including products of free groups, as well as some simple groups. This is joint work with Annette Karrer, Kim Ruane and Bakul Sathaye.
