DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/TQFT/154/">O
 n faithful representations of the braid group</a>\nby Anne-Laure Thiel (Un
 iversité de Bourgogne) as part of Topological Quantum Field Theory Club (
 IST\, Lisbon)\n\n\nAbstract\nThe famous Burau representation of the braid 
 group is known to be unfaithful for braids with at least five strands. In 
 the early 2000s\, two constructions were provided to fix faithfulness: the
  first being the Lawrence–Krammer–Bigelow linear representation\, henc
 e proving linearity of braid groups\, and the second being the Khovanov–
 Seidel categorical representation. In this talk\, based on joint work in p
 rogress with Licata\, Queffelec\, and Wagner\, I will investigate the inte
 rplay between these two representations.\n
