Introduction to Representations of Braid Groups
These are lecture notes prepared for a minicourse given at the Cimpa Research School Algebraic and geometric aspects of representation theory, held in Curitiba, Brazil in March 2013. The purpose of the course is to provide an introduction to the study of representations of braid groups. Three general classes of representations of braid groups are considered: homological representations viamapping class groups, monodromy representations via the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov connection, and solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation via quasi-triangular bialgebras. Some of the remarkable relations between these three different constructions are described.
