We study the algebraic structures of the virtual singular braid monoid, $VSB_n$, and the virtual singular pure braid monoid, $VSP_n$. The monoid $VSB_n$ is the splittable extension of $VSP_n$ by the symmetric group $S_n$. We also construct…

We construct two representations of the twin group $T_n, n\geq 2$, namely $\eta_1: T_n \rightarrow \text{Aut}(\mathbb{F}_n)$ and $\eta_2: T_n \rightarrow \text{GL}_n(\mathbb{Z}[t^{\pm 1}])$, where $\mathbb{F}_n$ is a free group with $n$…

We provide a complete classification of the homogeneous $3$-local representations of the twin group $T_n$, the virtual twin group $VT_n$, and the welded twin group $WT_n$, for all $n\geq 4$. Beyond this classification, we examine the main…

Motivated by the notion of the multi-virtual braid group introduced by L. Kauffman and by the study of extensions of the well-known twin group T_n, n >= 2, we introduce a new group called the multi-virtual twin group M_kVT_n, where k >= 1…

We show that the virtual singular braid monoid on $n$ strands embeds in a group $VSG_n$, which we call the virtual singular braid group on $n$ strands. The group $VSG_n$ contains a normal subgroup $VSPG_n$ of virtual singular pure braids.…

For an integer $n \geq 2$, set $B_n$ to be the braid group on $n$ strands and $SB_n$ to be the singular braid group on $n$ strands. $SB_n$ is one of the important group extensions of $B_n$ that appeared in 1998. Our aim in this paper is to…

In this paper, we study the representations of the triplet group $L_n$, where $n$ is a positive integer, and its extensions to the virtual and welded triplet groups $VL_n$ and $WL_n$, respectively. We first introduce $L_n$, its extensions,…

In this article, we introduce the singular twin monoid and its corresponding group, constructed from both algebraic and topological perspectives. We then classify all complex homogeneous $2$-local representations of this constructed group.…

The virtual braid group $VB_n$, the virtual twin group $VT_n$ and the virtual triplet group $VL_n$ are extensions of the symmetric group $S_n$, which are motivated by the Alexander-Markov correspondence for virtual knot theories. The…

Twin groups and virtual twin groups are planar analogues of braid groups and virtual braid groups, respectively. These groups play the role of braid groups in the Alexander-Markov correspondence for the theory of stable isotopy classes of…

In this paper, we examine specific submonoids within the singular twisted virtual braid monoid $STVB_n$. Notably, we establish that the singular twisted virtual pure braid monoid $STVP_n$ serves as the kernel of an epimorphism from $STVB_n$…

The virtual singular braid group arises as a natural common generalization of classical singular braid groups and virtual braid groups. In this paper, we study several algebraic properties of the virtual singular braid group $VSG_n$. We…

For a natural number $n$, denote by $B_n$ the braid group on $n$ strings and by $SM_n$ the singular braid monoid on $n$ strings. $SM_n$ is one of the most important extensions of $B_n$. In [13], Y. Mikhalchishina classified all homogeneous…

We investigate the homogeneous $2$-local representations of the twin group $T_n$ for all integers $n\geqslant 2$. A complete classification is obtained, yielding three distinct families of representations. We show that each of these…

In the present paper we study structural aspects of certain quotients of braid groups and virtual braid groups. In particular, we construct and study linear representations $B_n\to {\rm GL}_{n(n-1)/2}\left(\mathbb{Z}[t^{\pm1}]\right)$,…

Study of stable isotopy classes of a finite collection of immersed circles without triple or higher intersections on closed oriented surfaces is considered as a planar analogue of virtual knot theory, a far reaching generalisation of…

Virtual singular braids are generalizations of singular braids and virtual braids. We define the virtual singular braid monoid via generators and relations, and prove Alexander- and Markov-type theorems for virtual singular links. We also…

Representations of braid group $B_n$ on $n \geq 2$ strands by automorphisms of a free group of rank $n$ go back to Artin (1925). In 1991 Kauffman introduced a theory of virtual braids and virtual knots and links. The virtual braid group…

This paper classifies complex local representations of the twisted virtual braid group, $\mathrm{TVB}_2$, into $\mathrm{GL}_3(\mathbb{C})$. It shows that such representations fall into eight types, all of which are unfaithful and reducible…

The singular braids with $n$ strands, $n \geq 3$, were introduced independently by Baez and Birman. It is known that the monoid formed by the singular braids is embedded in a group that is known as singular braid group, denoted by $SG_n$.…
