Abstract: | In this paper, the authors systematically discuss orbit braids in M × I with regards to orbit configuration space FG(M, n), where M is a connected topological manifold of dimension at least 2 with an effective action of a finite group G. These orbit braids form a group, named orbit braid group, which enriches the theory of ordinary braids. The authors analyze the substantial relations among various braid groups associated to those configuration spaces FG(M, n), F(M/G, n) and F(M, n). They also consider the presentations of orbit braid groups in terms of orbit braids as generators by choosing M = C with typical actions of Zp and (Z2)2. |
