Negative curvature in graph braid groups

Group Theory 2019-12-24 v1

Abstract

In this article, we initiate a geometric study of graph braid groups. More precisely, by applying the formalism of special colorings introduced in a previous article, we determine precisely when a graph braid group is Gromov-hyperbolic, toral relatively hyperbolic, and acylindrically hyperbolic.
