The bistability of embedded elements provides a natural route through which to introduce reprogrammability to elastic meta-materials. One example of this is the soft morphable sheet, in which bistable elements that can be snapped up or…
Presentations are computed for a braided version BV of Thompson's group V and for V itself showing that there is an Artin group/Coxeter group relation between them. The presentation for V is obtained from that for BV by declaring all that…
For an oriented surface link $S$, we can take a satellite construction called a 2-dimensional braid over $S$, which is a surface link in the form of a covering over $S$. We demonstrate that 2-dimensional braids over surface links are useful…
A geometric braid $B$ can be interpreted as a loop in the space of monic complex polynomials with distinct roots. This loop defines a function $g:\mathbb{C}\times S^1\to\mathbb{C}$ that vanishes on $B$. We define the set of P-fibered braids…
We study the wrapping of N type IIB Dp-branes on a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$ in genus $g>1$ by means of the Sen-Witten construction, as a superposition of N' type IIB Dp'-brane/antibrane pairs, with $p'>p$. A background Neveu-Schwarz…
For a general surface $M$ and an arbitrary braid $\alpha$ from the surface braid group $B_{n-1}(M)$ we study the system of equations $d_1\beta=\cdots=d_{n}\beta=\alpha, $ where operation $d_i$ is deleting of $i$-th strand. We obtain that if…
Let $ S $ be the special fibre of the good reduction of a Shimura variety of Hodge type. By constructing adapted deformations for the associated $p$-divisible groups of $ S $, we manage to construct a morphism from $S$ to some quotient…
In this paper we discuss a new type of 4-dimensional representation of the braid group. The matrices of braid operations are constructed by q-deformation of Hamiltonians. One is the Dirac Hamiltonian for free electron with mass m, the…
We construct a map from knots to (abstract) 2-knots which can be extended to higher dimensions; this map is the natural "knot" counterpart for "braid" theory of groups $G_{n}^{k}$.
We compute the braiding for the `principal gradation' of $U_q(\hat{{\it sl}_2})$ for $|q|=1$ from first principles, starting from the idea of a rigid braided tensor category. It is not necessary to assume either the crossing or the…
We present a new spectroscopic classification for OB stars based on H-band (1.5 micron to 1.8 micron) observations of a sample of stars with optical spectral types. Our initial sample of nine stars demonstrates that the combination of He I…
We produce an explicit description of the K-theory and K-homology of the pure braid group on $n$ strands. We describe the Baum--Connes correspondence between the generators of the left- and right-hand sides for $n=4$. Using functoriality of…
Dehornoy showed that the Artin braid groups $B_n$ are left-orderable. This ordering is discrete, but we show that, for $n >2$ the Dehornoy ordering, when restricted to certain natural subgroups, becomes a dense ordering. Among subgroups…
We present a simple model of binary star formation based on the assumption that rotating prestellar cores collapse to form rings and these rings then fragment into protostars. We assume that each ring spawns a small number (N <= 6) of…
We give an exact algorithm to calculate (under some GKM-restriction) the matrix describing the embedding $\B(\s)_x\subset\B(\s)^x$, where the first module is the costalk and the second one is the stalk at $x$ of a Bott-Samelson module…
Let B_n be the Artin braid group on n strings with standard generators sigma_1, ..., sigma_{n-1}, and let SB_n be the singular braid monoid with generators sigma_1^{+-1}, ..., sigma_{n-1}^{+-1}, tau_1, ..., tau_{n-1}. The desingularization…
We investigate Bruhat-Tits buildings and their compactifications by means of Berkovich analytic geometry over complete non-Archimedean fields. For every reductive group G over a suitable non-Archimedean field k we define a map from the…
We construct a braiding operator in terms of the quantum dilogarithm function based on the quantum cluster algebra. We show that it is a q-deformation of the R-operator for which hyperbolic octrahedron is assigned. Also shown is that, by…
We study the so called hybrid stars, which are hadronic stars that contain a core of deconfined quarks. For this purpose, we make use of an extended version of the SU(3) chiral model. Within this approach, the degrees of freedom change…
We give generators for a certain complex hyperbolic braid group. That is, we remove a hyperplane arrangement from complex hyperbolic $13$-space, take the quotient of the remaining space by a discrete group, and find generators for the…
