In 1987, Gromov conjectured that for every non-elementary hyperbolic group G there is an n = n(G) such that the quotient group G/Gn is infinite. The article confirms this conjecture. In addition, a description of finite subgroups of G/Gn is given, it is proven that the word and conjugacy problem are solvable in G/Gn and that ⋂∞ k=1G k = {1}. The proofs heavily depend upon prior authors’ results on the Gromov conjecture for torsion free hyperbolic groups and on the Burnside problem for periodic groups of even exponents.
