Artin braid groups and homotopy groups

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, 2009
We study the Brunnian subgroups and the boundary Brunnian subgroups of the Artin braid groups. The general higher homotopy groups of the sphere are given by mirror symmetric elements in the quotient groups of the Artin braid groups modulo the boundary Brunnian braids, as well as given as a summand of the center of the quotient groups of Artin pure ...

Conjugacy Problem for Subgroups with Applications to Artin Groups and Braid Type Group

open access: yesCommunications in Algebra, 2006
Let $G$ be a group endowed with a solution to the conjugacy problem and with an algorithm which computes the centralizer in $G$ of any element of $G$. Let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. We give some conditions on $H$, under which we provide a solution to the conjugacy problem in $H$. We apply our results to some Artin groups and braid type groups.

Almost-crystallographic groups as quotients of Artin braid groups

open access: yesJournal of Algebra, 2019
Let $n, k \geq 3$. In this paper, we analyse the quotient group $B\_n/Γ\_k(P\_n)$ of the Artin braid group $B\_n$ by the subgroup $Γ\_k(P\_n)$ belonging to the lower central series of the Artin pure braid group $P\_n$. We prove that it is an almost-crystallographic group. We then focus more specifically on the case $k=3$. If $n \geq 5$, and if $τ\in N$

Gröbner–Shirshov basis for the braid group in the Artin–Garside generators

open access: yesJournal of Symbolic Computation, 2008
In this paper, we give a Groebner-Shirshov basis of the braid group $B_{n+1}$ in the Artin--Garside generators. As results, we obtain a new algorithm for getting the Garside normal form, and a new proof that the braid semigroup $B^+{n+1}$ is the subsemigroup in $B_{n+1}$.

The $$R_\infty $$ property for pure Artin braid groups [PDF]

open access: yesMonatshefte Fur Mathematik, 2021
In this paper we prove that all pure Artin braid groups $P_n$ ($n\geq 3$) have the $R_\infty$ property. In order to obtain this result, we analyse the naturally induced morphism $\operatorname{\text{Aut}}(P_n) \to \operatorname{\text{Aut}}(Γ_2 (P_n)/Γ_3(P_n))$ which turns out to factor through a representation $ρ\colon S_{n+1} \to \operatorname{\text ...

Conjugacy problem for braid groups and Garside groups [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Algebra, 2003
We present a new algorithm to solve the conjugacy problem in Artin braid groups, which is faster than the one presented by Birman, Ko, and Lee [Adv. Math. 139 (1998) 322–353].
