dc.description.abstract | In this dissertation, we present two separate results in geometric group theory. The first is an accessibility result for hyperbolic groups with no 2-torsion. The second result proves the invariance under quasi-isometries of certain vertex groups of the Scott-Swarup JSJ decomposition of one-ended, finitely presented groups. | en_US |
