A combinatorial negative curvature condition implying Gromov hyperbolicity

Abstract

We explore a local combinatorial condition on a simplicial complex, called 8-location. We show that 8-location and simple connectivity imply Gromov hyperbolicity. We mention some applications of such combinatorial negative curvature condition.
