Every Plat Presentation Admits a Positive Bounded Braid Representative

Seth Hovland

原始摘要(英文原文)· Original abstract
Classifying link types via their n-bridge positions requires navigating vast Hilden double coset classes H2n\B2n/H2n. We provide a restriction on this by proving that every Hilden double coset admits a positive braid representative whose Dehornoy minimum is explicitly bounded. The proof relies on the key observation that $Δ\in H_{2n}$, which allows us to utilize the Garside left-greedy normal form to remove all powers of $Δ$ from any given braid representative. We provide an explicit upper bound on its Dehornoy minimum in terms of the Garside length of the initial presentation. This bounded representative restricts the algebraic space of plat presentations, providing a potential computational tool for studying bridge isotopy classes and offering a constructive step toward algebraic approaches to the Bridge Finiteness Conjecture.
