On the existence of weakly malnormal quasiconvex subgroups of hyperbolic groups

Abstract

In this short note, we prove the existence of weakly malnormal, virtually free, quasiconvex subgroups in any nonelementary hyperbolic group. This extends a result of Ilya Kapovich, where he proved the existence of malnormal quasiconvex subgroups in torsion-free hyperbolic groups.
