Braids and Self-Distributivity (Progress in Mathematics, 192) 2000th Edition by Patrick Dehornoy (PDF)

Description

This is the award-winning monograph of the Sunyer i Balaguer Prize 1999. The book presents recently discovered connections between Artin’s braid groups and left self-distributive systems, which are sets equipped with a binary operation satisfying the identity x(yz) = (xy)(xz). Although not a comprehensive course, the exposition is self-contained, and many basic results are established. In particular, the first chapters include a thorough algebraic study of Artin’s braid groups.

User’s Reviews

Editorial Reviews: Review “In this book…P. Dehornoy has accomplished with remarkable success the task of presenting the area of interaction where Artin’s braid groups, left self-distributive systems (LD-systems) and set theory come together in a rigorous and clear manner…The exposition is self-contained and there are no prerequisites. A number of basic results about braid groups, self-distributive algebras, and set theory are provided.” –Mathematical Reviews
