Let $\mathfrak{G}$ be the subgroup $\mathfrak{S}_{n-q} \times \mathfrak{S}_{q}$ of the $n$-th symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_{n}$ for $n-q \geq q$. In this paper, we study the $\mathfrak{G}$-invariant part of the rational cohomology group of…

We define the intersection complex for the universal cover of a compact weakly special square complex and show that it is a quasi-isometry invariant. By using this quasi-isometry invariant, we study the quasi-isometric classification of…

Manin associated to a quadratic algebra (quantum space) the quantum matrix group of its automorphisms. This Talk aims to demonstrate that Manin's construction can be extended for quantum spaces which are non-quadratic homogeneous algebras.…

This paper aims to generalize Artin's ideas to establish an one-to-one correspondence between the orbit braid group $B^{orb}_n(\mathbb{C},\mathbb{Z}_p)$ and a quotient of a group formed by some particular homeomorphisms of a punctured…

Let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic zero. For any positive integer $n$ and any scalar $a\in\Bbbk$, we construct a family of Artin-Schelter regular algebras $R(n,a)$, which are quantisations of Poisson structures on…

We introduce the periplectic $q$-Brauer category over an integral domain of characteristic not $2$. This is a strict monoidal supercategory and can be considered as a $q$-analogue of the periplectic Brauer category. We prove that the…

We study the space $Q_n$ of all configurations of $n$ ordered points on the circle such that no three points coincide, and in which one of the points (say, the last one) is fixed. We compute its fundamental group for $n<6$ and describe its…

Using a variant of an unpublished argument due to Agol, we show that an irreducible right-angled Coxeter group on ${n \geq 3}$ vertices embeds as a thin subgroup of a uniform arithmetic lattice in an indefinite orthogonal group…

We introduce a graph-theoretic condition, called $(n,m)$--branching, that ensures a combinatorial round tree with controlled branching parameters can be quasi-isometrically embedded in the Davis complex of the right-angled Coxeter group…

We introduce the universal virtual braid group $UV_n(c)$, which provides a unified algebraic framework for virtual braid--type structures with $c$ types of crossings and admits natural quotient maps onto the standard families in the…

We provide an affine cellular structure on the extended affine Hecke algebra and affine $q$-Schur algebra of type $A_{n-1}$ that is defined over $\mathbb{Z}\left[q^{\pm1}\right]$, that is, without an adjoined $q^{\frac{1}{2}}$. This is with…

Artin groups are a natural generalization of braid groups and are well-understood in certain cases. Artin groups are closely related to Coxeter groups. There is a faithful representation of a Coxeter group $W$ as a linear reflection group…

We prove a number of new results on the large-scale geometry of the $L^p$-metrics on the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of each orientable surface. Our proofs use in a key way the Fulton-MacPherson type compactification of the…

We describe the fundamental group and second homotopy group of ordered $k-$point sets in $Gr(k,n)$ generating a subspace of fixed dimension.

We derive presentation and relations for a group of compact Riemann surface that is given as branched cover of the sphere. In the case that one of the permutations is of full cycle of the form $(1...n)$ we derive a straightforward process…

In this thesis we construct 3-parameter families $G(p,q,r)$ of embedded arcs with fixed boundary in a 4-manifold. We then analyze these elements of $\pi_3\mathsf{Emb}_\partial(I,M)$ using embedding calculus by studying the induced map from…

I introduce compact quantum group extensions associated with the $q$-deformations of the classical compact groups $USp(2n)$, $O(n,\mathbb{R})$ and $SO(2n,\mathbb{R})$. Motivated by the relationship between $SU_q(n)$ and $U_q(n)$, I study…

We prove that the conjugacy problem in right-angled Artin groups (RAAGs), as well as in a large and natural class of subgroups of RAAGs, can be solved in linear-time. This class of subgroups contains, for instance, all graph braid groups…

We use braided groups to introduce a theory of $*$-structures on general inhomogeneous quantum groups, which we formulate as {\em quasi-$*$} Hopf algebras. This allows the construction of the tensor product of unitary representations up to…

Set-theoretic solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation form a meeting-ground of mathematical physics, algebra and combinatorics. Such a solution $(X,r)$ consists of a set $X$ and a bijective map $r:X\times X\to X\times X$ which satisfies the…
