Abstract
For a finitely generated group, there are two recent generalizations of the notion of a quasiconvex subgroup of a word-hyperbolic group, namely a stable subgroup and a Morse or strongly quasiconvex subgroup. Durham and Taylor [M. Durham and S. Taylor, Convex cocompactness and stability in mapping class groups, Algebr. Geom. Topol. 15(5) (2015) 2839–2859] defined stability and proved stability is equivalent to convex cocompactness in mapping class groups. Another natural generalization of quasiconvexity is given by the notion of a Morse or strongly quasiconvex subgroup of a finitely generated group, studied recently by Tran [H. Tran, On strongly quasiconvex subgroups, To Appear in Geom. Topol., preprint (2017), arXiv:1707.05581 ] and Genevois [A. Genevois, Hyperbolicities in CAT (0) cube complexes, preprint (2017), arXiv:1709.08843 ]. In general, a subgroup is stable if and only if the subgroup is Morse and hyperbolic. In this paper, we prove that two properties of being Morse and stable coincide for a subgroup of infinite index in the mapping class group of an oriented, connected, finite type surface with negative Euler characteristic.
