Distortion for abelian subgroups of Out(F_n)
From MaRDI portal
Publication:4576005
Abstract: We prove that abelian subgroups of the outer automorphism group of a free group are quasi-isometrically embedded. Our proof uses recent developments in the theory of train track maps by Feighn-Handel. As an application, we prove the rank conjecture for .
