Abstract
We give a sufficient condition for the fundamental group of a reglued graph of surfaces to be hyperbolic. A reglued graph of surfaces is constructed by cutting a fixed graph of surfaces along the edge surfaces, then regluing by pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms of the edge surfaces. By carefully choosing the regluing homeomorphism, we construct an example of such a reglued graph of surfaces, whose fundamental group is not abstractly commensurable to any surface-by-free group, ie which is different from all the examples given by Mosher [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 125 (1997) 3447–3455].
