We provide general formulae for the configurational exponents of an arbitrary polymer network connected to the surface of an arbitrary wedge of the two-dimensional plane, where the surface is allowed to assume a general mixture of boundary…

We prove that if g and n are integers at least two, then the abstract commensurator of the braid group with n strands on a closed orientable surface of genus g is naturally isomorphic to the extended mapping class group of a compact…

A lattice model of critical spanning webs is considered for the finite cylinder geometry. Due to the presence of cycles, the model is a generalization of the known spanning tree model which belongs to the class of logarithmic theories with…

We analyse the structure of equivalence classes of symmetric quivers whose generating series are equal. We consider such classes constructed using the basic operation of unlinking, which increases a size of a quiver. The existence and…

We study braid varieties and their relation to open positroid varieties. We discuss four different types of braids associated to open positroid strata and show that their associated Legendrian links are all Legendrian isotopic. In…

We classify homomorphisms from the braid group on $n$ strands to the pure mapping class group of a nonoriantable surface of genus $g$. For $n\ge 14$ and $g\le 2\lfloor{n/2}\rfloor+1$ every such homomorphism is either cyclic, or it maps…

We provide new group presentations for surface braid groups which are positive. We study some properties of such presentations and we solve the conjugacy problem in a particular case.

We introduce framed versions of the $L$-moves and prove a one move theorem for the extension of the Markov theorem for framed braids. We further introduce framed versions of the Hilden and Pure Hilden groups, we give presentations and we…

We introduce a method of computing biquandle brackets of oriented knots and links using a type of decorated trivalent spatial graphs we call trace diagrams. We identify algebraic conditions on the biquandle bracket coefficients for moving…

We study a wide range of homologically-defined representations of surface braid groups and of mapping class groups of surfaces, including the Lawrence-Bigelow representations of the classical braid groups. These representations naturally…

Braid groups are an important and flexible tool used in several areas of science, such as Knot Theory (Alexander's theorem), Mathematical Physics (Yang-Baxter's equation) and Algebraic Geometry (monodromy invariants). In this note we will…

We examine the structure of Farey maps, which are a class of maps (graph embeddings on surfaces) that have received significant attention recently. We describe how they are related to each other through regular coverings and parallel…

We define an equivalence relation on graphs with signed edges, such that the associated adjacency matrices of two equivalent graphs are congruent over $\mathbb{Z}$. We show that signed graphs whose eigenvalues are larger than $-2$ are…

We introduce colorings of oriented surface-links by biquasiles using marked graph diagrams. We use these colorings to define counting invariants and Boltzmann enhancements of the biquasile counting invariants for oriented surface-links. We…

We introduce "book links" as a generalization of braids in open book decompositions; this new class of objects includes both braids and plats as special cases. We then prove a version of Markov's theorem in this general setting by extending…

We give unique recovery guarantees for matrices of bounded rank that have undergone permutations of their entries. We even do this for a more general matrix structure that we call ladder matrices. We use methods and results of commutative…

We present relations in the mapping class monoid of $S_{0,0}^n$ between products of boundary parallel twists and those involving only non boundary parallel twists. These are of particular interest because each element gives an open book…

The new examples are found of the constraints which link the 1+2-dimensional and multifield integrable equations and lattices. The vector and matrix generalizations of the Nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation and the Ablowitz-Ladik lattice are…

Braidoids form a counterpart theory to the theory of planar knotoids, just as braids do for three-dimensional links. As such, planar knotoid diagrams represent the same knotoid in $\mathbb{R}^2$ if and only if they can be presented as the…

We consider collections of disjoint simple closed curves in a compact orientable surface which decompose the surface into pairs of pants. The isotopy classes of such curve systems form the vertices of a 2-complex, whose edges correspond to…
