AbstractThe symmetric group 𝓢n acts on the power set 𝓟(n) and also on the set of square free polynomials in n variables. These two related representations are analyzed from the stability point of view. An application is given for the action of the symmetric group on the cohomology of the pure braid group.

The group of planar (or flat) pure braids on [Formula: see text] strands, also known as the pure twin group, is the fundamental group of the configuration space [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] labeled points in [Formula: see text] no three of which coincide. The planar pure braid groups on 3, 4 and 5 strands are free. In this note, we describe the planar pure braid group on 6 strands: it is a free product of the free group on 71 generators and 20 copies of the free abelian group of rank two.

We construct a linear representation of the group IA (Fn) of IA-automorphisms of a free group Fn, an extension of the Gassner representation of the pure braid group Pn. Although the problem of faithfulness of the Gassner representation is still open for n > 3, we prove that the restriction of our representation to the group of basis conjugating automorphisms Cbn contains a non-trivial kernel even if n = 2. We construct also an extension of the Burau representation to the group of conjugating automorphisms Cn. This representation is not faithful for n ≥ 2.

Let $\operatorname{Homeo}_{+}(D_{n}^{2})$ be the group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of $D^{2}$ fixing the boundary pointwise and $n$ marked points as a set. The Nielsen realization problem for the braid group asks whether the natural projection $p_{n}:\operatorname{Homeo}_{+}(D_{n}^{2})\rightarrow B_{n}:=\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}_{0}(\operatorname{Homeo}_{+}(D_{n}^{2}))$ has a section over subgroups of $B_{n}$ . All of the previous methods use either torsion or Thurston stability, which do not apply to the pure braid group $PB_{n}$ , the subgroup of $B_{n}$ that fixes $n$ marked points pointwise. In this paper, we show that the pure braid group has no realization inside the area-preserving homeomorphisms using rotation numbers.

All knots have been shown to be isotopic to the unknot using a process known as virtualization. We extend and adapt this process to show that, up to fused isotopy, classical links are classified by their linking numbers. We provide an algebraic proof, utilizing Alexander’s Theorem and some simple results about the pure braid group.

We show that the monodromy of ∇ is the dual of a quotient of a specialized reduced Gassner representation.

Abstract In this paper, we show that the minimal asymptotic translation length of the Torelli group ${\mathcal{I}}_g$ of the surface $S_g$ of genus $g$ on the curve graph asymptotically behaves like $1/g$, contrary to the mapping class group ${\textrm{Mod}}(S_g)$, which behaves like $1/g^2$. We also show that the minimal asymptotic translation length of the pure braid group ${\textrm{PB}}_n$ on the curve graph asymptotically behaves like $1/n$, contrary to the braid group ${\textrm{B}}_n$, which behaves like $1/n^2$.
