Subgroup tameness conjecture for hyperbolic mapping tori of free groups
Let be a finitely generated free group and let be a fully irreducible monomorphism, meaning that no proper nontrivial finitely generated free factor is mapped into a conjugate of itself by a positive power of . Set and assume that is hyperbolic. For a finitely generated subgroup , a fibre subgroup is one arising from an automorphism of a finite-index mapping-torus subgroup, and a semi-fibre subgroup is the analogous subgroup arising from a proper monomorphism. Subgroup tameness conjecture. Either is a fibre or semi-fibre subgroup of a finite-index subgroup of , or is quasi-convex. This is the proposed analogue of the subgroup tameness theorem for hyperbolic 3-manifold groups; the source attributes it to an AIM workshop and Abdenbi–Wise, and gives no resolution.
