Keywords:

Braid, Upper singular braid, Upper singular braid monoids

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to describe the structure of SB n+monoids and prove some new properties. The second purpose of the article is to present the experience carried out with mathematics teachers and students from 17 to 21 years old concerning SB n + monoids and observe how these concepts were perceived.
