We consider the group of pure welded braids (also known as loop braids) up to (link-)homotopy. The pure welded braid group classically identifies, via the Artin action, with the group of basis-conjugating automorphisms of the free group,…

A braiding operation defines a real-space renormalization group for anyonic chains. The resulting renormalization group flow can be used to define a quantum scaling limit by operator-algebraic renormalization. It is illustrated how this…

The cyclic shift graph of a monoid is the graph whose vertices are the elements of the monoid and whose edges connect elements that are cyclic shift related. The Patience Sorting algorithm admits two generalizations to words, from which two…

Let k be a field. Let also (F, G) be a matched pair of groups. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on a pair (\sigma, \tau) of 2-cocycles in order that the crossed product algebra and the crossed coproduct coalgebra…

A knot in the 3-sphere is called doubly slice if it is a slice of an unknotted 2-sphere in the 4-sphere. We give a bi-sequence of new obstructions for a knot being doubly slice. We construct it following the idea of Cochran-Orr-Teichner's…

Given a short exact sequence of groups with certain conditions, $1\to F\to G\to H\to 1$, we prove that $G$ has solvable conjugacy problem if and only if the corresponding action subgroup $A\leqslant Aut(F)$ is orbit decidable. From this, we…

We consider the braid groups $\mathbf{B}_n(X)$ on finite simplicial complexes $X$, which are generalizations of those on both manifolds and graphs that have been studied already by many authors. We figure out the relationships between…

A group $G$ with conjugation operation is a rack. We call such racks \emph{group racks}. In this paper we study finite group racks via their subrack lattices. Heckenberger, Shareshian, and Welker proved that the isomorphism type of the…

We use the classical interpretation of the braid group $B_3$ as a central extension of the modular group $\text{PSL}_2\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$ to establish new and fundamental properties of $B_3$ using the theory of continued fractions. In…

We compute the automorphism group of the intersection graph of many large-type Artin groups. This graph is an analogue of the curve graph of mapping class groups but in the context of Artin groups. As an application, we deduce a number of…

We provide an explicit construction that allows one to easily decompose a graph braid group as a graph of groups. This allows us to compute the braid groups of a wide range of graphs, as well as providing two general criteria for a graph…

Dehn twists around simple closed curves in oriented surfaces satisfy the braid relations. This gives rise to a group theoretic from the braid group to the mapping class group. We prove here that this map is trivial in stable homology with…

We give criteria for deciding whether or not a triangle-free simple graph is the presentation graph of a right-angled Coxeter group that is quasiisometric to some right-angled Artin group, and, if so, producing a presentation graph for such…

We study an efficient algorithm to hash any single qubit gate (or unitary matrix) into a braid of Fibonacci anyons represented by a product of icosahedral group elements. By representing the group elements by braid segments of different…

We give a bound for the virtually cyclic dimension of groups with a normal subgroup of finite index which satisfies that every infinite virtually-cyclic subgroup is contained in a unique maximal such subgroup. As an application we provide a…

We ask if any finite type generalized braid group is a subgroup of some classical Artin braid group. We define a natural map from a given finite type generalized braid group to a classical braid group and ask if this map is an injective…

The Garside group, as a generalization of braid groups and Artin groups of finite types, is defined as the group of fractions of a Garside monoid. We show that the semidirect product of Garside monoids is a Garside monoid. We use the…

Homology of braid groups and Artin groups can be related to the study of spaces of curves. We completely calculate the integral homology of the family of smooth curves of genus $g$ with one boundary component, that are double coverings of…

We characterize twisted right-angled Artin groups whose finitely generated subgroups are also twisted right-angled Artin groups. Additionally, we give a classification of coherence within this class of groups in terms of the defining graph.…

Circuit topology employs fundamental units of entanglement, known as soft contacts, for constructing knots from the bottom up, utilising circuit topology relations, namely parallel, series, cross, and concerted relations. In this article,…
