SUMMARY:Associators and representations of braids - Marin\, I (Universit d
 'Amiens)
DTSTART:20130408T153000Z

CONTACT:Mustapha Amrani
DESCRIPTION:>From their very construction 20 years ago as elements of a to
 rsor for the Grothendieck-Teichmueller group\, Drinfeld associators provid
 e representations of the (usual) braid groups. The study of representation
 -theoretic consequences of this construction reverberate into questions on
  associators\, and provide conjectural views on what to expect from genera
 lizations of associators to other types of braid groups\, where the symmet
 ric group is replaced by more general reflection groups. This talk will re
 view some of these questions as well as the state of the art in this area.
