Cubulating hyperbolic free-by-cyclic groups: the general case. (English) Zbl 1368.20050
Summary: Let $$\Phi\colon F\to F$$ be an automorphism of the finite-rank free group $$F$$. Suppose that $$G=F\rtimes_\Phi\mathbb Z$$ is word-hyperbolic. Then $$G$$ acts freely and cocompactly on a CAT(0) cube complex.
