Khovanov-Seidel braid representation
arXiv:2405.14298
Abstract
These are lecture notes from a lecture series given at CIRM in the Fall 2023. They give a down-to-earth introduction to Khovanov and Seidel's categorical representation of Artin-Tits groups, emphasizing the fact that it is all explicitly computable. Several prospective applications to (geometric) group theory are mentioned.
