A broad challenge in the theory of finitely generated groups is to understand their subgroups. A group is commensurably coHopfian if its finite index subgroups are distinct from its infinite index subgroups (that is to say not abstractly isomorphic). We will focus primarily on hyperbolic groups, and give the first examples of one-ended hyperbolic groups that are not commensurably coHopfian.
This is joint work with Emily Stark.
