摘要
Boundaries of groups which admit geometric actions on CAT(0) spaces are not yet well-defined because the homeomorphism question of Gromov's has not been answered. This question, as well as the Tits metric question is answered affirmatively for CAT(0) groups of the form G x H when both factors an nonelementary word hyperbolic groups.
