A Non-quasiconvexity Embedding Theorem for Hyperbolic Groups

چکیده

We show that if G is a non-elementary torsion-free word hyperbolic group then there exists another word hyperbolic group G∗, such that G is a subgroup of G∗ but G is not quasiconvex in G∗ . We also prove that any non-elementary subgroup of a torsion-free word hyperbolic group G contains a free group of rank two which is malnormal and quasiconvex in G.

The Combination Theorem and Quasiconvexity

We show that if G is a fundamental group of a finite k-acylindrical graph of groups where every vertex group is word-hyperbolic and where every edge-monomorphism is a quasi-isometric embedding, then all the vertex groups are quasiconvex in G (the group G is word-hyperbolic by the Combination Theorem of M.Bestvina and M.Feighn). This allows one, in particular, to approximate the word metric on G...

A Note on Quasiconvexity and Relative Hyperbolic Structures

Let G be a group which is hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups H1, and it is also hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups H2. Suppose that H2 ⊂ H1. We characterize, for subgroups of G, when quasiconvexity relative to H1 implies quasiconvexity relative to H2. We also show that quasiconvexity relative toH2 implies quasiconvexity relative toH1. As an application, we give some ...

Quasiconvexity and Amalgams

We obtain a criterion for quasiconvexity of a subgroup of an amalgamated free product of two word hyperbolic groups along a virtually cyclic subgroup. The result provides a method of constructing new word hyperbolic group in class (Q), that is such that all their finitely generated subgroups are quasiconvex. It is known that free groups, hyperbolic surface groups and most 3-dimensional Kleinian...

Hierarchically Hyperbolic Spaces Ii: Combination Theorems and the Distance Formula

We introduce a number of tools for nding and studying hierarchically hyperbolic spaces (HHS), a rich class of spaces including mapping class groups of surfaces, Teichmüller space with either the Teichmüller or Weil-Petersson metrics, right-angled Artin groups, and the universal cover of any compact special cube complex. We begin by introducing a streamlined set of axioms de ning an HHS. We prov...
