Virtual amalgamation of relatively quasiconvex subgroups

Eduardo Martínez-Pedroza and Alessandro Sisto

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 12 (2012) 1993–2002
Abstract

For relatively hyperbolic groups, we investigate conditions guaranteeing that the subgroup generated by two relatively quasiconvex subgroups Q1 and Q2 is relatively quasiconvex and isomorphic to Q1 Q1Q2Q2. The main theorem extends results for quasiconvex subgroups of word-hyperbolic groups, and results for discrete subgroups of isometries of hyperbolic spaces. An application on separability of double cosets of quasiconvex subgroups is included.
