On p-almost direct products and residual properties of pure braid groups of nonorientable surfaces
We prove that the nth pure braid group of a nonorientable surface (closed or with boundary, but different from RP2) is residually 2-finite. Consequently, this group is residually nilpotent. The key ingredient in the closed case is the notion of p-almost direct product, which is a generalization of the notion of almost direct product. We prove therefore also some results on lower central series ...
متن کاملOrdering pure braid groups on closed surfaces
We prove that the pure braid groups on closed, orientable surfaces are bi-orderable, and that the pure braid groups on closed, non-orientable surfaces have generalized torsion, thus they are not bi-orderable.
متن کاملResidual Nilpotence for Generalizations of Pure Braid Groups
It is known that the pure braid groups are residually torsion-free nilpotent. This property is however widely open for the most obvious generalizations of these groups, like pure Artin groups and like fundamental groups of hyperplane complements (even reflection ones). In this paper we relate this problem to the faithfulness of linear representations, and prove the residual torsion-free nilpote...
متن کاملOrdering Pure Braid Groups on Compact, Connected Surfaces
The purpose of this paper is to answer the following question: Are pure braid groups on compact, connected surfaces bi-orderable? We will prove that the answer is positive for orientable surfaces, and negative for the non-orientable ones. In this section we give the basic definitions and classical results. We also explain what is known about orders on braid groups, and finally we state our resu...
