ON QUASI-MORPHISMS FROM KNOT AND BRAID INVARIANTS
We study quasi-morphisms on the groups P n of pure braids on n strings and on the group [Formula: see text] of compactly supported area-preserving diffeomorphisms of an open two-dimensional disk. We show that it is possible to build quasi-morphisms on P n by using knot invariants which satisfy some …
