The one-ended subgroup characterization for inaccessible finitely generated groups
Let be a finitely generated group and let be a subgroup of . Say that is 1-ended in when it has one end relative to .
The one-ended subgroup characterization. The subgroup of the finitely generated group is 1-ended in if and only if for each splitting of , where and is finite, is a subgroup of a conjugate of or .
This question is raised in the context of inaccessible finitely generated groups; the paper asks what can be said about such groups. The source provides no resolution of the characterization.
