Nonexistence of one-vertex JSJ quotients of a free product
Nonexistence of one-vertex JSJ quotients of a free product
Let be the free group appearing in the free product . A quotient is fully residually if it has the residual property relative to , and its JSJ decomposition has vertex groups. One-vertex JSJ conjecture. There are no fully residually quotients of whose JSJ decomposition has only one vertex group. This conjecture asserts that every such quotient must have a JSJ decomposition with more than one vertex group; the source presents it as a conjecture without providing evidence of a resolution.
