Infinitely many non-conjugate braid representatives of links
We prove that under a fairly general condition (that the edge strands are not fixed by the braid permutation) an iterated exchange move gives infinitely many non-conjugate braid representatives of links. More precisely, almost all braids obtained by iterated positive exchange moves are pairwise non-conjugate. As a consequence, every link with no trivial components has infinitely many conjugacy classes of n-braid representatives if and only if it has one admitting an exchange move.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra concentrates on that part of algebra likely to be of general mathematical interest: algebraic results with immediate applications, and the development of algebraic theories of sufficiently general relevance to allow for future applications.
