Subgroups of Free Groups are Free
We give an elementary proof that subgroups of free groups are free via group actions. We give a characterization of free groups by means of group actions and we provide the proof by giving the free generating set of the subgroup explicitly.
This is a paper by Benjamin Steinberg, Carleton University.
