The framed braid group and 3-manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The framed braid group on n n strands is defined to be a semidirect product of the braid group B n {B_n} and Z

Generalizations of the standard Artin representation are unitary

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2005
We consider the Magnus representation of the image of the braid group under the generalizations of the standard Artin representation discovered by M. Wada.

The braid group of Z(n) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We define pseudo-Garside groups and prove a theorem parallel to Garside's result on the word problem for the usual braid groups. The main novelty is that the set of simple elements can be infinite.

A BRAIDED SIMPLICIAL GROUP [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, 2002
By studying the braid group action on Milnor's construction of the 1-sphere, we show that the general higher homotopy group of the 3-sphere is the fixed set of the pure braid group action on certain combinatorially described groups. This establishes a relation between the braid groups and the homotopy groups of the sphere.2000Mathematical Subject ...

Invariant tensors for the spin representation of $\frak{so}$(7) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We give a graphical calculus for the invariant tensors of the eight dimensional spin representation of the quantum group Uq(B3). This leads to a finite confluent presentation of the centraliser algebras of the tensor powers of this representation and a ...

Monodromy Representations of the Braid Group [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Chiral conformal blocks in a rational conformal field theory are a far going extension of Gauss hypergeometric functions. The associated monodromy representations of Artin's braid group capture the essence of the modern view on the subject, which ...

Megamaps: Construction and Examples [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2001
We consider the usual model of hypermaps or, equivalently, bipartite maps, represented by pairs of permutations that act transitively on a set of edges E.

Cluster Structures on Double Bott–Samelson Cells

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2021
Let $\mathsf {C}$ be a symmetrisable generalised Cartan matrix. We introduce four different versions of double Bott–Samelson cells for every pair of positive braids in the generalised braid group associated to $\mathsf {C}$ .

The Cohomology of the Mod 4 Braid Group [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The mod 4 braid group, $\mathcal{Z}_{n}$, is defined to be the quotient of the braid group by the subgroup of the pure braid group generated by squares of all elements.
