Let ~3,~ be the braid group on n strings and let q5 : %n -+ S,~ be the standard homomorphism of ~3,~ onto the group of permutations of the set {1,..., n}. In this paper the author calculates, using the Reidemeister-Schreier method, a presentation for the subgroups ~,~,p of ~3n whose image ~,(~3n,p)

We use the action of an Artin group on its associated Deligne complex (as defined by Charney and Davis) to give information about the Σ-invariants of Artin groups. This gives a nearly complete description of the finiteness properties of normal subgroups above the commutator subgroup of an Artin grou

We describe some of the properties of the pure braid groups of surfaces di erent from S 2 and RP 2 . In the case of compact, connected, orientable surfaces without boundary and of genus at least two, we give a necessary and su cient condition for the splitting of the pure braid group exact sequence

In this note, we consider the topological and homological properties of braid groups for the M obius Band M. We show that there is an isomorphism as algebras where F denotes either Q or Fp with p ¿ 2. The integer homology of Br(M; k) is also given.
