Characterization of jacobian Newton polygons of plane branches and new criteria of irreducibility

Evelia R. García Barroso, Janusz Gwoździewicz (2010)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this paper we characterize, in two different ways, the Newton polygons which are jacobian Newton polygons of a plane branch. These characterizations give in particular combinatorial criteria of irreducibility for complex series in two variables and necessary conditions which a complex curve has to satisfy in order to be the discriminant of a complex plane branch.

Characters of the Grothendieck-Teichmüller group through rigidity of the Burau representation

Ivan Marin (2008)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

We present examples of characters of absolute Galois groups of number fields that can be recovered through their action by automorphisms on the profinite completion of the braid groups, using a “rigidity” approach. The way we use to recover them is through classical representations of the braid groups, and in particular through the Burau representation. This enables one to extend these characters to Grothendieck-Teichmüller groups.
