Relative sectional curvature in compact angled 2-complexes

We define the notion of relative sectional curvature for 2-complexes, and prove that a compact angled 2-complex that has negative sectional curvature relative to planar sections has coherent fundamental group. We analyze a certain type of 1-complex that we call flattenable graphs Gamma→ X f...
