JSJ decompositions and polytopes for two-generator one-relator groups

Abstract:

We provide a direct connection between the Zmax (or essential) JSJ decomposition and the Friedl–Tillmann polytope of a hyperbolic two-generator one-relator group with abelianisation of rank 2.

We deduce various structural and algorithmic properties, like the existence of a quadratic-time algorithm computing the ZmaxJSJ decomposition of such groups.
