In this paper we show that the singular braid monoid of an orientable surface can be embedded in a group. The proof is purely topological, making no use of the monoid presentation.

We provide a necessary and sufficient condition on a finite flag simplicial complex, L, for which there exists a unique CAT(0) cube complex whose vertex links are all isomorphic to L. We then find new examples of such CAT(0) cube complexes…

The unknotting number of a positive braid with n strands and k intersections is known to be equal to (k-n+1)/2. We consider Lorenz knots (which are positive braids) and, using a different method, find their unknotting numbers in terms of…

The knot concordance group can be contextualized as organizing problems about 3- and 4-dimensional spaces and the relationships between them. Every 3-manifold is surgery on some link, not necessarily a knot, and thus it is natural to ask…

In this article we present an unpublished proof of W. Thurston that pure braid groups have the congruence subgroup property.

We prove that the pure braid groups on closed, orientable surfaces are bi-orderable, and that the pure braid groups on closed, non-orientable surfaces have generalized torsion, thus they are not bi-orderable.

We prove that a random group has fixed points when it isometrically acts on a CAT(0) cube complex. We do not assume that the action is simplicial.

Is is shown that the quantum Weyl group of $sl_2$ contains an element that is a cylinder twist, i.e. it gives rise to representations of the braid group of Coxeter type B.

Does every one-ended $CAT(0)$ group have semistable fundamental group at infinity? As we write, this is an open question. Let $G$ be such a group acting geometrically on the proper $CAT(0)$ space $X$. In this paper we show that in order to…

We show that the smallest non-cyclic quotients of braid groups are symmetric groups, proving a conjecture of Margalit. Moreover we recover results of Artin and Lin about the classification of homomorphisms from braid groups on n strands to…

We prove that pure braid groups of closed surface are almost-direct products of residually torsion free nilpotent groups and hence residually torsion free nilpotent. As a Corollary, we prove also that braid groups on 2 strands of closed…

We place conditions on the presentation graph of a right-angled Artin group that guarantee the standard CAT(0) cube complex on which the group acts geometrically has non-path-connected boundary.

We improve and shorten the argument given in(Journal of Algebra, vol.~210 (1998) pp~291--297). Inparticular, the fact that Artin braid groups are torsion free now follows from Garside\'s results almost immediately.

We give a short proof for the fact, already proven by Thomas Haettel, that the arbitrary intersection of parabolic subgroups in Euclidean Braid groups $A[\tilde{A}_n]$ is again a parabolic subgroup. To that end, we use that the…

In this paper, we generalizing the main result in Liu[10] to weak Hopf coquasigroups case. We first define and study group-cograded weak Hopf quasigroups, which generalize both group-cograded Hopf quasigroups and weak Hopf group-coalgebras.…

In the present paper we study the singular pure braid group $SP_{n}$ for $n=2, 3$. We find generators, defining relations and the algebraical structure of these groups. In particular, we prove that $SP_{3}$ is a semi-direct product $SP_{3}…

In the present paper we construct braid group actions on quantum symmetric pair coideal subalgebras of type AIII/AIV. This completes the proof of a conjecture by Kolb and Pellegrini in the case where the underlying Lie algebra is…

A key invariant of a braided categorical group is its quadratic form, introduced by Joyal and Street. We show that the categorical group is braided equivalent to a simultaneously skeletal and strictly associative one if and only if the…

We show that a certain triangulation of CAT(0) triangle-pentagon complexes is $7$-located and locally $5$-large. Hereby we give examples of $7$-located, locally $5$-large groups.

In this article, we introduce a new family of groups, called Chambord groups and constructed from braided strand diagrams associated to specific semigroup presentations. It includes the asymptotically rigid mapping class groups previously…
