Homology computations for complex braid groups

Filippo Callegaro, Ivan Marin (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Complex braid groups are the natural generalizations of braid groups associated to arbitrary (finite) complex reflection groups. We investigate several methods for computing the homology of these groups. In particular, we get the Poincaré polynomial with coefficients in a finite field for one large series of such groups, and compute the second integral cohomology group for all of them. As a consequence we get non-isomorphism results for these groups.

Homology of braid groups and their generalizations

Vladimir Vershinin (1998)

Banach Center Publications

In the paper we give a survey of (co)homologies of braid groups and groups connected with them. Among these groups are pure braid groups and generalized braid groups. We present explicit formulations of some theorems of V. I. Arnold, E. Brieskorn, D. B. Fuks, F. Cohen, V. V. Goryunov and others. The ideas of some proofs are outlined. As an application of (co)homologies of braid groups we study the Thom spectra of these groups.

Homology of gaussian groups

Patrick Dehornoy, Yves Lafont (2003)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We describe new combinatorial methods for constructing explicit free resolutions of ℤ by ℤ G -modules when G is a group of fractions of a monoid where enough lest common multiples exist (“locally Gaussian monoid”), and therefore, for computing the homology of G . Our constructions apply in particular to all Artin-Tits groups of finite Coexter type. Technically, the proofs rely on the properties of least common multiples in a monoid.
