Abstract

In classical knot theory, Markov's theorem gives a way of describing all braids with isotopic closures as links in R3\mathbb{R}^3. We present a version of Markov's theorem for extended loop braids with closure in B3×S1B^3 \times S^1, as a first step towards a Markov's theorem for extended loop braids and ribbon torus-links in R4\mathbb{R}^4.
