Noninjectivity of the monodromy of certain equicritical strata
Peter Huxford, Nick Salter
An equicritical stratum is the locus of univariate monic squarefree complex polynomials where the critical points have prescribed multiplicities. Tracking the positions of both roo…
Connected components of the topological surgery graph of a unicellular collection
Nick Salter, Abdoul Karim Sane
A unicellular collection on a surface is a collection of curves whose complement is a single disk. There is a natural surgery operation on unicellular collections, endowing the set…
Stratified braid groups: monodromy
Nick Salter
The space of monic squarefree complex polynomials has a stratification according to the multiplicities of the critical points. We introduce a method to study these strata by way of…
On the monodromy group of the family of smooth plane curves
Nick Salter
We consider the space of smooth complex projective plane curves of degree d. Defined over this is the tautological family of plane curves, and hence there is a monodromy representa…
