The structure of disjoint iteration groups on the circle

Krzysztof Ciepliński (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The aim of the paper is to investigate the structure of disjoint iteration groups on the unit circle 𝕊 1 , that is, families = { F v 𝕊 1 𝕊 1 v V } of homeomorphisms such that F v 1 F v 2 = F v 1 + v 2 , v 1 , v 2 V , and each F v either is the identity mapping or has no fixed point ( ( V , + ) is an arbitrary 2 -divisible nontrivial (i.e., c a r d V > 1 ) abelian group).

The tame automorphism group of an affine quadric threefold acting on a square complex

Cinzia Bisi, Jean-Philippe Furter, Stéphane Lamy (2014)

Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques

We study the group Tame ( SL 2 ) of tame automorphisms of a smooth affine 3 -dimensional quadric, which we can view as the underlying variety of SL 2 ( ) . We construct a square complex on which the group admits a natural cocompact action, and we prove that the complex is CAT ( 0 ) and hyperbolic. We propose two applications of this construction: We show that any finite subgroup in Tame ( SL 2 ) is linearizable, and that Tame ( SL 2 ) satisfies the Tits alternative.

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...
