This study uses basic tools of descriptive set theory to prove that a closed set S of marked groups has 2 aleph 0 quasi-isometry classes, and further analyzes the perfect sets of marked groups with dense subsets of finitely presented groups. The results account for most known constructions of continuous families of non-quasi-isometric finitely generated groups, and show the existence of 2 aleph 0 quasi-isometry classes of finitely generated groups with interesting algebraic, geometric, or model-theoretic properties.
We use basic tools of descriptive set theory to prove that a closed set S of marked groups has 2 aleph 0 quasi-isometry classes, provided that every non-empty open subset of S contains at least two non-quasi-isometric groups. It follows that every perfect set of marked groups having a dense subset of finitely presented groups contains 2 aleph 0 quasi-isometry classes. These results account for most known constructions of continuous families of non-quasi-isometric finitely generated groups. We use them to prove the existence of 2 aleph 0 quasi-isometry classes of finitely generated groups having interesting algebraic, geometric, or model-theoretic properties (for example, such groups can be torsion, simple, verbally complete or they can all have the same elementary theory).
