Abstract

In this paper we study some subgroups and their decompositions in semi-direct product of the twisted virtual braid group TVBnTVB_n. In particular, the twisted virtual pure braid group TVPnTVP_n is the kernel of an epimorphism of TVBnTVB_n onto the symmetric group SnS_n. We find the set of generators and defining relations for TVPnTVP_n and show that TVBn=TVPnSnTVB_n = TVP_n \rtimes S_n. Further we prove that TVPnTVP_n is a semi-direct product of some subgroup and abelian group Z2n\mathbb{Z}_2^n. As corollary we get that the virtual pure braid group VPnVP_n is a subgroup of TVPnTVP_n. Also, we construct some other epimorphism of TVBnTVB_n onto SnS_n. Its kernel, TVHnTVH_n is an analogous of TVPnTVP_n. We find its set of generators and defining relations and construct its decomposition in a semi-direct product.
