On Krammer's Representation of the Braid Group | Matthew G. Zinno
; | Date: |
16 Feb 2000 | Subject: | Representation Theory; Algebraic Topology; Geometric Topology; Group Theory MSC-class: 20F36 (Primary) 20C15, 16K20 (Secondary) | math.RT math.AT math.GR math.GT | Abstract: | A connection is made between the Krammer representation and the Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebra. Inspired by a dimension argument, a basis is found for a certain irrep of the algebra, and relations which generate the matrices are found. Following a rescaling and change of parameters, the matrices are found to be identical to those of the Krammer representation. The two representations are thus the same, proving the irreducibility of one and the faithfulness of the other. | Source: | arXiv, math.RT/0002136 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
