Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Everyone knows what braids are, whether they be made of hair, knitting wool, or electrical cables. However, it is not so evident that we can construct a theory about them, i.e. to elaborate a coherent and mathematically interesting corpus of results concerning them. This book demonstrates that there is a resoundingly positive response to this question: braids are fascinating objects, with a variety of rich mathematical properties and potential applications. A special emphasis is placed on the algorithmic aspects and on what can be called the 'calculus of braids', in particular the problem of isotopy. Prerequisites are kept to a minimum, with most results being established from scratch. An appendix at the end of each chapter gives a detailed introduction to the more advanced notions required, including monoids and group presentations. Also included is a range of carefully selected exercises to help the reader test their knowledge, with solutions available. This introductory book on braid groups and related topics keeps prerequisites to a minimum, with appendices providing a detailed guide to the more advanced notions required. A special emphasis is placed on the algorithmic aspects of braids. A range of exercises allow students to test their knowledge, with solutions available. This item is printed on demand.
