North-South type dynamics of relative atoroidal automorphisms of free groups on a relative space of currents

Abstract

This paper, which is the second of a series of three papers, studies dynamical properties of elements of $\mathrm{Out}(F_{\tt n})$, the outer automorphism group of a nonabelian free group $F_{\tt n}$. We prove that, for every exponentially growing outer automorphism of $F_{\tt n}$, there exists a preferred compact topological space, the space of currents relative to a malnomal subgroup system, on which $\phi$ acts by homeomorphism with a North-South dynamics behavior.
