从群H和H H中,我们定义了一个表示ρ: B n→Aut(H* n),其中B n表示n条链上的编织群,H* n表示n个H的自由积,我们称p为与(H, H)相关联的Artin型表示。在这里,我们研究了这种表征的各个方面。首先,我们将每个编织β关联为一个群Γ (H, H) (β),并证明了算子Γ (H, H)确定了一个定向链接的群不变量。然后我们给出了Artin类型表示和链接不变量Γ (H, H)的拓扑结构,并证明了Artin类型表示是可靠的当且仅当H是非平凡的。最后研究了一类半直积H* n × ρ B n,其中ρ: B n→Aut(H* n)是Artin型表示。特别地,我们证明了H* n × ρ B n是Garside群,如果H是Garside群,H是H的Garside元素。
From a group H and h e H, we define a representation ρ: B n → Aut(H* n ), where B n denotes the braid group on n strands, and H* n denotes the free product of n copies of H. We call p the Artin type representation associated to the pair (H, h). Here we study various aspects of such representations. Firstly, we associate to each braid β a group Γ (H,h) (β) and prove that the operator Γ (H,h) determines a group invariant of oriented links. We then give a topological construction of the Artin type representations and of the link invariant Γ (H,h) , and we prove that the Artin type representations are faithful if and only if h is nontrivial. The last part of the paper is devoted to the study of some semidirect products H* n × ρ B n , where ρ: B n → Aut(H* n ) is an Artin type representation. In particular, we show that H* n × ρ B n is a Garside group if H is a Garside group and h is a Garside element of H.
