The Yang-Baxter equation and it's various forms have applications in many fields, including statistical mechanics, knot theory, and quantum information. Unitary solutions of the braided Yang-Baxter equation are of particular interest as…
This is the first paper in a series where we generalize the Categorical Quantum Mechanics program (due to Abramsky, Coecke, et al) to braided systems. In our view a uniform description of quantum information for braided systems has not yet…
L. Kauffman (2024) introduced multi-virtual and symmetric multi-virtual braid groups, which are generalizations of the virtual braid group. We introduce multi-virtual pure and multi-virtual semi-pure braid groups, which are normal subgroups…

It is shown that every quantum principal bundle is braided, in the sense that there exists an intrinsic braid operator twisting the functions on the bundle. A detailed algebraic analysis of this operator is performed. In particular, it…

The reduced Burau representation $V_n$ of the braid group $B_n$ is obtained from the action of $B_n$ on the homology of an infinite cyclic cover of the disc with $n$ punctures. The group homology $H_*(B_n;V_n)$ of braid groups with…
