We define the braid groups of a two-dimensional orbifold and introduce conventions for drawing braid pictures. We use these to realize the Artin groups associated to the spherical Coxeter diagrams A_n, B_n=C_n and D_n and the affine diagrams tilde{A}_n, tilde{B}_n, tilde{C}_n and tilde{D}_n as subgroups of the braid groups of various simple orbifolds. The cases D_n, tilde{B}_n, tilde{C}_n and tilde{D}_n are new. In each case the Artin group is a normal subgroup with abelian quotient; in all cases except tilde{A}_n the quotient is finite. We illustrate the value of our braid calculus by performing with pictures a nontrivial calculation in the Artin groups of type D_n.

  1. HOMFLYPT homology for links in handlebodies via type A Soergel bimodules

    math.QA 2019-08 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    Links in genus-g handlebodies are assigned a triply-graded homology built from singular Soergel bimodules and Hochschild cohomology, generalizing colored HOMFLYPT homology.
