Abstract
We show that every finitely generated free-by-cyclic group admits a largest acylindrical action on a hyperbolic space obtained by coning off maximal product subgroups of . We characterise Morse geodesics of as those that project to quasigeodesics in , thus showing that all finitely generated free-by-cyclic groups are Morse local-to-global. We also characterise the stable and strongly quasiconvex subgroups of . Finally, we compute the Morse boundary for \{finitely generated free\}-by-cyclic groups with unipotent and polynomially growing monodromy.
