Résumé

Let $M$ be a surface, let $N$ be a subsurface, and let $n \leq m$ be two positive integers. The inclusion of $N$ in $M$ gives rise to a homomorphism from the braid group $B_{n} N$ with $n$ strings on $N$ to the braid group $B_{m} M$ with $m$ strings on $M$ . We first determine necessary and sufficient conditions that this homomorphism is injective, and we characterize the commensurator, the normalizer and the centralizer of $π_{1} N$ in $π_{1} M$ . Then we calculate the commensurator, the normalizer and the centralizer of $B_{n} N$ in $B_{m} M$ for large surface braid groups.

Soient $M$ une surface, $N$ une sous-surface et $n \leq m$ deux entiers positifs. L’inclusion de $N$ dans $M$ induit un homomorphisme du groupe $B_{n} N$ des tresses à $n$ brins de $N$ dans le groupe $B_{m} M$ des tresses à $m$ brins de $M$ . Nous donnons dans un premier temps des conditions nécessaires et suffisantes pour que cet homomorphisme soit injectif et caractérisons le commensurateur, le normalisateur et le centralisateur de $π_{1} N$ dans $π_{1} M$ . Ensuite, nous déterminons le commensurateur, le normalisateur et le centralisateur de $B_{n} N$ dans $B_{m} M$ dans les cas où $N$ est un disque et où $N$ est large.
