Relatively hyperbolic groups with strongly shortcut parabolics are strongly shortcut

Group Theory 2023-10-24 v3

Abstract

We show that a group that is hyperbolic relative to strongly shortcut groups is itself strongly shortcut, thus obtaining new examples of strongly shortcut groups. The proof relies on a result of independent interest: we show that every relatively hyperbolic group acts properly and cocompactly on a graph in which the parabolic subgroups act properly and cocompactly on convex subgraphs.
