The faithfulness question for the Burau representation

open access: yes, 1993
We consider the Burau and Gassner representations of the braid groups B n {B_n} . A sufficient condition for faithfulness, involving just a pair of arcs, is shown to be necessary as well for all but at

Some remarks about the faithfulness of the Burau representation of Artin--Tits groups [PDF]

open access: yes
We discuss the extension of the faithfulness question for the Burau representation of braid groups to the case of Artin--Tits groups. We prove that the Burau representation is not faithful in affine type $\tilde{A_3}$, and not faithful over several ...

4-Strand Burau is Unfaithful Modulo 5

open access: yes, 2023
We introduce a new algorithm for finding kernel elements in the Burau representation. Our algorithm applies reservoir sampling to a statistic on matrices which is closely correlated with Garside length. Using this we exhibit an explicit kernel element in

Burau Maps and Twisted Alexander Polynomials

open access: yes, 2018
The Burau representation of the braid group can be used to recover the Alexander polynomial of the closure of a braid. We define twisted Burau maps and use them to compute twisted Alexander polynomials.

A Garside-theoretic analysis of the Burau representations

open access: yes, 2017
We establish relations between both the classical and the dual Garside structures of the braid group and the Burau representation. Using the classical structure, we formulate a non-vanishing criterion for the Burau representation of the 4-strand braid ...
