We give a survey of the theory of surface braid groups and the lower algebraic K-theory of their group rings. We recall several definitions and describe various properties of surface braid groups, such as the existence of torsion,…

In \cite{Manturov} the second author defined the $k$-free braid group with $n$ strands $G_{n}^{k}$. These groups appear naturally as groups describing dynamical systems of $n$ particles in some "general position". Moreover, in…

In this paper, we introduce PM-mapping class monoids. Braid groups and mapping class groups have many features in common. Similarly to the notion of braid PM-monoid, PM-mapping class monoid is defined. This construction is an analogy of…

We investigate the formal deformation theory of (rank 1) branes on generalized complex (GC) manifolds. This generalizes, for example, the deformation theory of a complex submanifold in a fixed complex manifold. For each GC brane…

A graph $\Gamma$ is called $G$-symmetric if it admits $G$ as a group of automorphisms acting transitively on the set of ordered pairs of adjacent vertices. We give a classification of $G$-symmetric graphs $\Gamma$ with $V(\Gamma)$ admitting…

We show that the restriction of the Dehornoy ordering to an appropriate free subgroup of the three-strand braid group defines a left ordering of the free group on k generators, k>1, that has no convex subgroups.

Let $S$ be a Dedekind scheme, $X$ a connected $S$-scheme locally of finite type and $x\in X(S)$ a section. The aim of the present paper is to establish the existence of the fundamental group scheme of $X$, when $X$ has reduced fibers or…

We investigate a group $B\_\bullet$ that includes Artin's braid group $B\_\infty$ and Thompson's group $F$. The elements of $B\_\bullet$ are represented by braids diagrams in which the distances between the strands are not uniform and,…

The goal of this mostly expository paper is to present several candidates for hyperbolic structures on irreducible Artin-Tits groups of spherical type and to elucidate some relations between them. Most constructions are algebraic analogues…

We describe how an Ore category with a Garside family can be used to construct a classifying space for its fundamental group(s). The construction simultaneously generalizes Brady's classifying space for braid groups and the Stein--Farley…

In this paper we describe a classifying theory for families of simplicial topological groups. If $B$ is a topological space and $G$ is a simplicial topological group, then we can consider the non-abelian cohomology $H(B,G)$ of $B$ with…

Generally, in any human field, a Smarandache Structure on a set A means a weak structure W on A such that there exists a proper subset B contained in A which is embedded with a stronger structure S. These types of structures occurin our…

This paper is a survey of some properties of the braid groups and related groups that lead to questions on mapping class groups.

We investigate criteria ensuring that a one-relator group $G$ contains a right-angled Artin subgroup $A(\Gamma)$, corresponding to a finite graph $\Gamma$. In particular, we prove that if $\Gamma$ is a forest with at least one edge and the…

Recently the first named author defined a 2-parametric family of groups $G_n^k$. Those groups may be regarded as analogues of braid groups. Study of the connection between the groups $G_n^k$ and dynamical systems led to the discovery of the…

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…

Let $G$ be a group endowed with a solution to the conjugacy problem and with an algorithm which computes the centralizer in $G$ of any element of $G$. Let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. We give some conditions on $H$, under which we provide a…

We describe a simple scheme for constructing finitely generated monoids in which left-divisibility is a linear ordering and for practically investigating these monoids. The approach is based on subword reversing, a general method of…

We define an algebraic group over a group $G$ to be a variety - that is, a subset of $G^d$ defined by equations over $G$ - endowed with a group law whose coordinates can be expressed as word maps. In the case where $G$ is a torsion-free…

Several distinct Garside monoids having torus knot groups as groups of fractions are known. For $n,m\geq 2$ two coprime integers, we introduce a new Garside monoid $\mathcal{M}(n,m)$ having as Garside group the $(n,m)$-torus knot group,…
