Abstract
We give a detailed description of an algorithmic procedure of creating certain inverse systems of finite simplicial complexes, limits of which we call ‘constructive Markov compacta’. We further compare this description with definitions given earlier in the literature and, as a result, deduce that the Gromov boundary of any hyperbolic group is homeomorphic to some constructive Markov compactum.
