Subgroups of word hyperbolic groups in rational dimension 2
A result of Gersten states that if G is a hyperbolic group with integral cohomological dimension cdZ(G)=2 then every finitely presented subgroup is hyperbolic. We generalize this result for the rational case cdQ(G)=2

. In particular, our result applies to the class of torsion-free hyperbolic groups
