We give a new presentation of the braid group $B$ of the complex reflection group $G(e,e,r)$ which is positive and homogeneous, and for which the generators map to reflections in the corresponding complex reflection group. We show that this…

In this work, we address a question posed by Dehornoy et al. in the book "Foundations of Garside Theory" that asks for a theory of groups of $\mathrm{I}_G$-type when $G$ is a Garside group. In this article, we introduce a broader notion…

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 define geodesic normal forms for the general series of complex reflection groups G(e,e,n). This requires the elaboration of a combinatorial technique in order to explicitly determine minimal word representatives of the elements of…

We develop an effective and natural approach to interpret any semigroup admitting a special language of greedy normal forms as an automaton semigroup,namely the semigroup generated by a Mealy automaton encoding the behaviour of such a…

We introduce an algorithmic framework to investigate spherical and geodesic growth series of braid groups relatively to the Artin's or Birman-Ko-Lee's generators. We present our experimentations in the case of three and four strands and…

We construct certain monoids, called tied monoids. These monoids result to be semidirect products finitely presented and commonly built from braid groups and their relatives acting on monoids of set partitions. The nature of our monoids…

In his initial paper on braids E.Artin gave a presentation with two generators for an arbitrary braid group. We give analogues of this Artin's presentation for various generalizations of braids.

We initiate the study of C*-algebras and groupoids arising from left regular representations of Garside categories, a notion which originated from the study of Braid groups. Every higher rank graph is a Garside category in a natural way. We…

Double-bosonisation associates to a braided group in the category of modules of a quantum group, a new quantum group. We announce the semiclassical version of this inductive construction.

We describe all the quasi-bialgebra structures of a group algebra over a torsion-free abelian group. They all come out to be triangular in a unique way. Moreover, up to an isomorphism, these quasi-bialgebra structures produce only one…

We solve the simultaneous conjugacy problem in Artin's braid groups and, more generally, in Garside groups, by means of a complete, effectively computable, finite invariant. This invariant generalizes the one-dimensional notion of super…

We describe Artin's braid group on a (fixed) finite number of strings as a crossed module over itself. In particular, we interpret the braid relations as crossed module structure relations.

For some infinite-dimensional groups $G$ and suitable subgroups $K$ there exists a monoid structure on the set $K\backslash G/K$ of double cosets of $G$ with respect to $K$. In this paper we show that the group $B_\infty$, of the braids…

It is known that the orbit spaces of the finite Coxeter groups and the Shephard groups admit two types of Saito structures without metric. One is the underlying structures of the Frobenius structures constructed by Saito and Dubrovin. The…

Garside calculus is the common mechanism that underlies a certain type of normal form for the elements of a monoid, a group, or a category. Originating from Garside's approach to Artin's braid groups, it has been extended to more and more…

This is the second part of a series of three articles which introduce laminations for free groups (see math.GR/0609416 for the first part). Several definition of the dual lamination of a very small action of a free group on an $\R$-tree are…

In this paper we construct two groupoids from morphisms of groupoids, with one from a categorical viewpoint and the other from a geometric viewpoint. We show that for each pair of groupoids, the two kinds of groupoids of morphisms are…

We show that a large class of right-angled Artin groups (in particular, those with planar complementary defining graph) can be embedded quasi-isometrically in pure braid groups and in the group of area preserving diffeomorphisms of the disk…

We state a conjecture about centralizers of certain roots of central elements in braid groups, and check it for Artin braid groups and some other cases. Our proof makes use of results by Birman-Ko-Lee; we give a new intrinsic account of…
