The virtual and universal braids

Valerij G. Bardakov (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We study the structure of the virtual braid group. It is shown that the virtual braid group is a semi-direct product of the virtual pure braid group and the symmetric group. Also, it is shown that the virtual pure braid group is a semi-direct product of free groups. From these results we obtain a normal form of words in the virtual braid group. We introduce the concept of a universal braid group. This group contains the classical braid group and has as quotients the singular braid group, virtual...

The Yokonuma-Temperley-Lieb algebra

D. Goundaroulis, J. Juyumaya, A. Kontogeorgis, S. Lambropoulou (2014)

Banach Center Publications

We define the Yokonuma-Temperley-Lieb algebra as a quotient of the Yokonuma-Hecke algebra over a two-sided ideal generated by an expression analogous to the one of the classical Temperley-Lieb algebra. The main theorem provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the Markov trace defined on the Yokonuma-Hecke algebra to pass through to the quotient algebra, leading to a sequence of knot invariants which coincide with the Jones polynomial.

Théorème de Kurosh pour les relations d’équivalence boréliennes

Aurélien Alvarez (2010)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

En théorie des groupes, le théorème de Kurosh est un résultat de structure concernant les sous-groupes d’un produit libre de groupes. Le théorème principal de cet article est un résultat analogue dans le cadre des relations d’équivalence boréliennes à classes dénombrables, que nous démontrons en développant une théorie de Bass-Serre dans ce cadre particulier.
