New Permutation Representations of The Braid Group
We give a new infinite family of group homomorphisms from the braid group Bk to the symmetric group Smk for all k and m ≥ 2. Most known permutation representations of braids are included in this family. We prove that the homomorphisms in this family are non-cyclic and transitive. For any divisor l of m, 1 ≤ l < m, we prove in particular that if m l is odd then there are 1+ m l non-conjugate hom...
متن کاملLocalization of Unitary Braid Group Representations
Governed by locality, we explore a connection between unitary braid group representations associated to a unitary R-matrix and to a simple object in a unitary braided fusion category. Unitary R-matrices, namely unitary solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation, afford explicitly local unitary representations of braid groups. Inspired by topological quantum computation, we study whether or not it is...
متن کاملBraid Monodromy of Special Curves
In this article, we compute the braid monodromy of two algebraic curves defined over R. These two curves are of complex level not bigger than 6, and they are unions of lines and conics. We use two different techniques for computing their braid monodromies. These results will be applied to computations of fundamental groups of their complements in C and CP.
متن کاملThe Interplay between Linear Representations of the Braid Group
We considerWada’s representation as a twisted version of the standard action of the braid group, Bn, on the free group with n generators. Constructing a free group, Gnm, of rank nm, we compose Cohen’s map Bn → Bnm and the embedding Bnm → Aut(Gnm) via Wada’s map. We prove that the composition factors of the obtained representation are one copy of Burau representation and m− 1 copies of the stand...
متن کاملBraid Monodromy and Topology of Plane Curves
In this paper we prove that braid monodromy of an affine plane curve determines the topology of a related projective plane curve. Introduction Our purpose in this paper is to relate the topological embedding of algebraic curves to a refinement of a well-known invariant of curves such as braid monodromy. Roughly speaking, braid monodromy is defined for a triple (C , L , P), where C ⊂ P2 is a cur...
