Diagram Groups, Braid Groups, and Orderability
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove that all diagram groups (in the sense of Guba and Sapir) are left-orderable. The proof is in two steps: firstly, it is proved that all diagram groups inject in a certain braid group on infinitely many strings, and secondly, this group is then shown to be left-orderable.

Local indicability and commutator subgroups of Artin groups
Artin groups (also known as Artin-Tits groups) are generalizations of Artin’s braid groups. This paper concerns Artin groups of spherical type, that is, those whose corresponding Coxeter group is finite, as is the case for the braid groups. We compute presentations for the commutator subgroups of the irreducible spherical-type Artin groups, generalizing the work of Gorin and Lin [GL69] on the b...
متن کاملA New Garside Structure for Braid Groups of Type
We describe a new presentation for the complex reflection groups of type (e, e, r) and their braid groups. A diagram for this presentation is proposed. The presentation is a monoid presentation which is shown to give rise to a Garside structure. A detailed study of the combinatorics of this structure leads us to describe it as post-classical.

متن کاملBraid Pictures for Artin Groups
We define the braid groups of a two-dimensional orbifold and introduce conventions for drawing braid pictures. We use these to realize the Artin groups associated to the spherical Coxeter diagrams An, Bn = Cn and Dn and the affine diagrams Ãn, B̃n, C̃n and D̃n as subgroups of the braid groups of various simple orbifolds. The cases Dn, B̃n, C̃n and D̃n are new. In each case the Artin group is a normal...
