Subgroup Decomposition in Mathrm{Out}(F_{n})

In this work the authors develop a decomposition theory for subgroups of \mathsf{Out}(F_n) which generalizes the decomposition theory for individual elements of \mathsf{Out}(F_n) found in the work of Bestvina, Feighn, and Handel, and which is analogous to the decomposition theory for subgroups of ma...
