We define a family of representations $\{\rho_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ of a pure braid group $P_{2k}$. These representations are obtained from an action of $P_{2k}$ on a certain type of $A_2$ web space with color $n$. The $A_2$ web space is a…

It is known that the pure braid groups are residually torsion-free nilpotent. This property is however widely open for the most obvious generalizations of these groups, like pure Artin groups and like fundamental groups of hyperplane…

A planar pure braid consists of $n$ descending smooth arcs, each connecting a point on one horizontal line $\ell_{1}$ to a point on a horizontal line $\ell_{2}$, which is required to be directly below the first point. Two arcs are allowed…

Let $\text{Homeo}_+(D^2_n)$ be the group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of $D^2$ fixing the boundary pointwise and $n$ marked points as a set. Nielsen realization problem for the braid group asks whether the natural projection…

Let G be the fundamental group of the complement of a K(G,1) hyperplane arrangement (such as Artin's pure braid group) or more generally a homologically toroidal group (as defined in the paper). The subgroup of elements in the complex…

We prove a four-term exact sequence of surface orbifold pure braid groups for all genus $\geq 1$, $2$-dimensional orientable orbifolds with cone points. This corrects our earlier result in arXiv.2106.08110.

We show that the morphisms from the braid group with n strands in the mapping class group of a surface with a possible non empty boundary, assuming that its genus is smaller or equal to n/2 are either cyclic morphisms (their images are…

We give several new positive finite presentations for the pure braid group that are easy to remember and simple in form. All of our presentations involve a metric on the punctured disc so that the punctures are arranged "convexly", which is…

In this paper we introduce the framed pure braid group on $n$ strands of an oriented surface, a topological generalisation of the pure braid group $P_n$. We give different equivalents definitions for framed pure braid groups and we study…

We consider the (pure) braid groups B_{n}(M) and P_{n}(M), where M is the 2-sphere S^2 or the real projective plane RP^2. We determine the minimal cardinality of (normal) generating sets X of these groups, first when there is no restriction…

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}…

The main result of this article is that any braided (resp. annular, planar) diagram group $D$ splits as a short exact sequence $1 \to R \to D \to S \to 1$ where $R$ is a subgroup of some right-angled Artin group and $S$ a subgroup of…

We give formulae for the first homology of the $n$-braid group and the pure 2-braid group over a finite graph in terms of graph theoretic invariants. As immediate consequences, a graph is planar if and only if the first homology of the…

This paper gives a new, simplified presentation of the classical pure braid group. The generators are given by the squares of the longest elements over connected subgraphs, and we prove that the only relations are either commutators or…

We consider normal subgroups $N$ of the braid group $B_n$ such that the quotient $B_n/N$ is an extension of the symmetric group by an abelian group. We show that, if $n\geq 4$, then there are exactly 8 commensurability classes of such…

In this paper we define a new family of groups which generalize the {\it classical braid groups on} $\C $. We denote this family by $\{B_n^m\}_{n \ge m+1}$ where $n,m \in \N$. The family $\{ B_n^1 \}_{n \in \N}$ is the set of classical…

We give a representation-theoretic bijection between rooted labeled forests with $n$ vertices and complete exceptional sequences for the quiver of type $A_n$ with straight orientation. The ascending and descending vertices in the forest…

The n-string braid group of a graph X is defined as the fundamental group of the n-point configuration space of the space X. This configuration space is a finite dimensional aspherical space. A. Abrams and R. Ghrist have conjectured that…

We compute and explicitly describe the Bieri-Neumann-Strebel invariants $\Sigma^1$ for the full and pure braid groups of the sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$, the real projective plane $\mathbb{R}P^2$ and specially the torus $\mathbb{T}$ and the Klein…

In~\cite{Ma} Manturov studied groups $G_{n}^{k}$ for fixed integers $n$ and $k$ such that $k<n$. In particular, $G_{n}^{2}$ is isomorphic to the group of free braids of $n$-stands. In~\cite{KiMa} Manturov and the author studied an invariant…
