Hyperbolic groups have been the subject of intensive investigation since the work of Gromov [8]. Let G =< J, R > be a finitely presented group with a set of generators J and a set of relators R. A word W in the alphabet J ±1 is equal to 1 in G if and only if there is an equality W =
متن کاملHyperbolic automorphisms of free groups
We prove that an automorphism φ : F → F of a finitely generated free group F is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov if it has no nontrivial periodic conjugacy classes. This result was previously claimed (but not proved) in [BF92].
متن کاملHyperbolic extensions of free groups
Given a finitely generated subgroup Γ≤ Out(F) of the outer automorphism group of the rank r free group F = Fr, there is a corresponding free group extension 1→ F→ EΓ→ Γ→ 1. We give sufficient conditions for when the extension EΓ is hyperbolic. In particular, we show that if all infinite order elements of Γ are atoroidal and the action of Γ on the free factor complex of F has a quasi-isometric o...
متن کاملFour-free Groups and Hyperbolic Geometry
We give new geometric information about the geometry of closed, orientable hyperbolic 3-manifolds with 4-free fundamental group. As an application we show that such a manifold has volume greater than 3.44. This is in turn used to show that if M is a closed orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold such that vol M ≤ 3.44, then dimZ2 H1(M ; Z2) ≤ 7.
متن کاملRandom Extensions of Free Groups and Surface Groups Are Hyperbolic
In this note, we prove that a random extension of either the free group FN of rank N ě 3 or of the fundamental group of a closed, orientable surface Sg of genus g ě 2 is a hyperbolic group. Here, a random extension is one corresponding to a subgroup of either OutpFN q or ModpSgq generated by k independent random walks. Our main theorem is that a k–generated random subgroup of ModpSgq or OutpFN ...
