Abstract

We show that finitely generated mapping tori of free groups have a canonical collection of maximal sub-mapping tori of finitely generated free groups with respect to which they are relatively hyperbolic and locally relatively quasi-convex. As a consequence, we characterise locally quasi-convex hyperbolic groups amongst free-by-cyclic and one-relator groups. We also upgrade several known results for mapping tori of finitely generated free groups to the general case, such as the computations of Dehn functions, the solution to the conjugacy problem and the characterisation of the finitely generated intersection property.
