Positive presentations of the braid groups and the embedding problem

Jae Woo Han, Ki Hyoung Ko

Published 2001-03-22, updated 2001-11-03Version 2

A large class of positive finite presentations of the braid groups is found and studied. It is shown that no presentations but known exceptions in this class have the property that equivalent braid words are also equivalent under positive relations.
