Abstract: We give a new, effective proof of the separability of cubically convex-cocompact subgroups of special groups. As a consequence, we show that if $G$ is a virtually compact special hyperbolic group, and $QleqG$ is a $K$-quasiconvex subgroup, then any $ginG-Q$ of word-length at most $n$ is separated from $Q$ by a subgroup whose index is polynomial in $n$ and exponential in $K$. This generalizes a result of Bou-Rabee and the authors on residual finiteness growth and a result of the second author on surface groups.

Recommendations

• Virtually compact special hyperbolic groups are conjugacy separable
• Separation of relatively quasiconvex subgroups.
• Coxeter groups are virtually special
• Special cube complexes
• Limit groups are subgroup conjugacy separable.
