摘要
We give a simple combinatorial criterion for a group that, when satisfied, implies that the group cannot be strongly relatively hyperbolic. The criterion applies to several classes of groups, such as surface mapping class groups, Torelli groups, and automorphism and outer automorphism groups of free groups.
