Abstract

We produce an explicit description of the K-theory and K-homology of the pure braid group on nn strands. We describe the Baum--Connes correspondence between the generators of the left- and right-hand sides for n=4n=4. Using functoriality of the assembly map and direct computations, we recover Oyono-Oyono's result on the Baum--Connes conjecture for pure braid groups. We also discuss the case of the full braid group B3B_3.
