PROPERTIES OF HYPERBOLIC GROUPS: FREE NORMAL SUBGROUPS, QUASICONVEX SUBGROUPS AND ACTIONS OF MAXIMAL GROWTH
Hyperbolic groups are defined using the analogy between algebraic objects groups and hyperbolic metric spaces and manifolds. Our research involves the study and use of two very different, yet very natural, classes of subgroups in a hyperbolic group G: normal subgroups and quasiconvex subgroups. Norm...
