An element in Artin's braid group B_n is said to be periodic if some power of it lies in the center of B_n. In this paper we prove that all previously known algorithms for solving the conjugacy search problem in B_n are exponential in the…

In the work we discuss two invariants of conjugacy classes of braids. The first invariant is the conformal module which occurred in connection with the interest in the 13th Hilbert Problem. The second is a popular dynamical invariant, the…

We consider a conformal invariant of braids, the extremal length with totally real horizontal boundary values $\lambda_{tr}$. The invariant descends to an invariant of elements of $\mathcal{B}_n\diagup\mathcal{Z}_n$, the braid group modulo…

For the finite groups GU(3), SU(3), GL(3), SL(3) over a finite field we solve the class product problem, i.e., we give a complete list of $m$-tuples of conjugacy classes whose product does not contain the identity matrix.

In this paper, we analyze the complexity of topological conjugacy of pointed Cantor minimal systems from the point of view of descriptive set theory. We prove that the topological conjugacy relation on pointed Cantor minimal systems is…

In this paper we study some aspects of knots and links in lens spaces. Namely, if we consider lens spaces as quotient of the unit ball $B^{3}$ with suitable identification of boundary points, then we can project the links on the equatorial…

The Witt group of nondegenerate braided fusion categories $\mathcal{W}$ contains a subgroup $\mathcal{W}_\text{un}$ consisting of Witt equivalence classes of pseudo-unitary nondegenerate braided fusion categories. For each…

In this paper, we study the structure of finite groups with a large number of conjugacy classes of $p$-elements for some prime $p$. As consequences, we obtain some new criteria for the existence of normal $p$-complements in finite groups.

We study the existence and the schematic structure of elementary components of the nested Hilbert scheme on a smooth quasi-projective variety. Precisely, we find a new lower bound for the existence of non-smoothable nestings of fat points…

In this article we give a classification of the sub-groups in PSL(2,Z) and of the conjugacy classes of these sub-groups by the mean of an combinatorial invariant: some trivalent diagrams (dotted or not). We give explicit formulae enabling…

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. This algorithm can be applied not only to braid groups, but to all Garside groups (which include…

The conformal module of conjugacy classes of braids implicitly appeared in a paper of Lin and Gorin in connection with their interest in the 13. Hilbert Problem. This invariant is the supremum of conformal modules (in the sense of Ahlfors)…

This paper presents results on structures in P based on tools developed from subjects of elementary number theory. Key findings are: The arithmetical sequence H = (+-3*2; 1) is in Z the smallest superset of P \ {3, 2}. H is a semigroup. A…

This paper deals with links and braids up to link-homotopy, studied from the viewpoint of Habiro's clasper calculus. More precisely, we use clasper homotopy calculus in two main directions. First, we define and compute a faithful linear…

In previous work we considered M-theory five branes wrapped on elliptic Calabi-Yau threefold near the smooth part of the discriminant curve. In this paper, we extend that work to compute the light states on the worldvolume of five-branes…

The $\mathcal{B}_p$-algebras are a family of vertex operator algebras parameterized by $p\in \mathbb Z_{\geq 2}$. They are important examples of logarithmic CFTs and appear as chiral algebras of type $(A_1, A_{2p-3})$ Argyres-Douglas…

Some curious structural similarities between a recent braid- and Hurwitz algebraic description of the unbroken internal symmetries for a single generations of Standard Model fermions were recently identified. The non-trivial braid groups…

Let $n, k \geq 3$. In this paper, we analyse the quotient group $B\_n/\Gamma\_k(P\_n)$ of the Artin braid group $B\_n$ by the subgroup $\Gamma\_k(P\_n)$ belonging to the lower central series of the Artin pure braid group $P\_n$. We prove…

We introduce a new numerical knot invariant, termed the \textit{segment number}, which is derived from partitioned knot diagrams subject to specific over/under-crossing constraints. We prove that a knot is non-trivial if and only if its…

With the idea of an eventual classification of 3-bridge links,\ we define a very nice class of 3-balls (called butterflies) with faces identified by pairs, such that the identification space is $S^{3},$ and the image of a prefered set of…
