Abstract: If X is a geodesic metric space and x1,x2,x3inX, a {it geodesic triangle} T=x1,x2,x3 is the union of the three geodesics [x1x2], [x2x3] and [x3x1] in X. The space X is delta-emph{hyperbolic} (in the Gromov sense) if any side of T is contained in a delta-neighborhood of the union of the two other sides, for every geodesic triangle T in X. If X is hyperbolic, we denote by delta(X) the sharp hyperbolicity constant of X, i.e. delta Some previous works characterize the hyperbolic product graphs (for the Cartesian product, strong product and lexicographic product) in terms of properties of the factor graphs. In this paper we characterize the hyperbolic product graphs for graph join G1uplusG2 and the corona G1diamondG2: G1uplusG2 is always hyperbolic, and G1diamondG2 is hyperbolic if and only if G1 is hyperbolic. Furthermore, we obtain simple formulae for the hyperbolicity constant of the graph join G1uplusG2 and the corona G1diamondG2.
