We consider a ‘contracting boundary’ of a proper geodesic metric space consisting of equivalence classes of geodesic rays that behave like geodesics in a hyperbolic space.We topologize this set via the Gromov product, in analogy to the topology of the boundary of a hyperbolic space. We show that when the space is not hyperbolic, quasi-isometries do not necessarily give homeomorphisms of this boundary. Continuity can fail even when the spaces are required to be CAT(0). We show this by constructing an explicit example.

Let (Z, d, μ) be a compact, connected, Ahlfors Q-regular metric space with Q > 1. Using a hyperbolic filling of Z,we define the notions of the p-capacity between certain subsets of Z and of theweak covering p-capacity of path families Γ in Z.We show comparability results and quasisymmetric invariance.As an application of our methodswe deduce a result due to Tyson on the geometric quasiconformality of quasisymmetric maps between compact, connected Ahlfors Q-regular metric spaces.
