Coarse decompositions of boundaries for CAT(0) groups
  In this work we introduce a new combinatorial notion of boundary $\Re C$ of an $\omega$-dimensional cubing $C$. $\Re C$ is defined to be the set of almost-equality classes of ultrafilters on the standard system of halfspaces of $C$, endowed with an order relation reflecting the interaction between the Tychonoff closures of the classes.   When $C$ arises as the dual of a cubulation -- or discrete system of halfspaces -- $\HH$ of a CAT(0) space $X$ (for example, the Niblo-Reeves cubulation of the Davis-Moussong complex of a finite rank Coxeter group), we show how $\HH$ induces a function $\rho:\bd X\to\Re C$. We develop a notion of uniformness for $\HH$, generalizing the parallel walls property enjoyed by Coxeter groups, and show that, if the pair $(X,\HH)$ admits a geometric action by a group $G$, then the fibers of $\rho$ form a stratification of $\bd X$ graded by the order structure of $\Re C$. We also show how this structure computes the components of the Tits boundary of $X$.   Finally, using our result from another paper, that the uniformness of a cubulation as above implies the local finiteness of $C$, we give a condition for the co-compactness of the action of $G$ on $C$ in terms of $\rho$, generalizing a result of Williams, previously known only for Coxeter groups.
