Scientific paper

Motivated by the work of McCarthy and Papadopoulos for subgroups of mapping class groups, we construct domains of proper discontinuity in the compactified Outer space and in the projectivized space of geodesic currents for any "sufficiently large" subgroup of $Out(F_N)$ (that is, a subgroup containing a hyperbolic iwip). As a corollary we prove that for $N\ge 3$ the action of $Out(F_N)$ on the subset of $\mathbb PCurr(F_N)$ consisting of all projectivized currents with full support is properly discontinuous.
