Abstract
In this note we solve the twisted conjugacy problem for braid groups, i.e. we propose an algorithm which, given two braids and an automorphism , decides whether for some . As a corollary, we deduce that each group of the form , a semidirect product of the braid group by a torsion-free hyperbolic group , has solvable conjugacy problem.
