Positive cones and bi-orderings on almost-direct products of free groups
Oscar Ocampo, Juliana Roberta Theodoro de Lima
Almost-direct products of free groups arise naturally in braid theory and in the study of automorphism groups of free groups. Although bi-invariant orderings are known to exist for…
On virtual singular braid groups
Oscar Ocampo
The virtual singular braid group arises as a natural common generalization of classical singular braid groups and virtual braid groups. In this paper, we study several algebraic pr…
The R-property for braid groups over orientable surfaces
Karel Dekimpe, Daciberg Lima Gonçalves, Oscar Ocampo
Let be an orientable surface of genus and of finite type without boundary (i.e. an orientable closed surface with a finite number of points removed). In this pap…
Coxeter-type quotients of surface braid groups
Renato Diniz, Oscar Ocampo, Paulo Cesar Cerqueira dos Santos Júnior
Let be a closed surface, and . In this paper, we analyze the Coxeter-type quotient group of the surface braid group by the normal clos…
