An It\^o type formula for the additive stochastic heat equation
We use the theory of regularity structures to develop an It\^o formula for
, the solution of the one dimensional stochastic heat equation driven by
space-time white noise with periodic boundary conditions. In particular for any
smooth enough function we can express the random distribution
and the random field in
terms of the reconstruction of some modelled distributions. The resulting
objects are then identified with some classical constructions of stochastic
calculus
Questions on surface braid groups
We provide new group presentations for surface braid groups which are
positive. We study some properties of such presentations and we solve the
conjugacy problem in a particular case
Braids on surfaces and finite type invariants
We prove that there is no functorial universal finite type invariant for
braids in if the genus of is positive.Comment: 6p., revised version, C.R.Acad.Sci.Paris, to appea
Representations of Braid Groups and Generalisations
We define and study extensions of Artin's representation and braid monodromy
representation to the case of topological and algebraical generalisations of
braid groups. In particular we provide faithful representations of braid groups
of oriented surfaces with boundary components as (outer) automorphisms of free
groups. We give also similar representations for braid groups of non oriented
surfaces with boundary components and we show a representation of braid groups
of closed surfaces as outer automorphisms of free groups. Finally, we provide
faithful representations of Artin-Tits groups of type as
automorphisms of free groups.Comment: Few misprints corrected, simpler proof for proposition 1
