abstract

  • In this article, we investigate the Gromov hyperbolicity of Denjoy domains equipped with the hyperbolic or the quasihyperbolic metric. The focus are on comparative or decomposition results, which allow us to
    reduce the question of whether a given domain is Gromov hyperbolic to a
    series of questions concerning simpler domains. We also give several
    concrete examples of applications of the results.
