Embedding right-angled Artin groups into graph braid groups
  We construct an embedding of any right-angled Artin group $G(\Delta)$ defined by a graph $\Delta$ into a graph braid group. The number of strands required for the braid group is equal to the chromatic number of $\Delta$. This construction yields an example of a hyperbolic surface subgroup embedded in a two strand planar graph braid group.
