Algebraic functions and closed braids
arXiv:math/0411316 · doi:10.1016/0040-9383(83)90031-9
Abstract
This article was originally published in Topology 22 (1983). The present hyperTeXed redaction includes references to post-1983 results as Addenda, and corrects a few typographical errors. (See math.GT/0411115 for a more comprehensive overview of the subject as it appears 21 years later.)
