โฆ Synopsis
In 1996, E. Formanek classified all the irreducible complex representations of B n of dimension at most n y 1, where B is the Artin braid group on n strings. In this n paper we extend this classification to the representations of dimension n, for n G 9. We prove that all such representations are equivalent to the tensor product of a one-dimensional representation and a specialization of a certain one-parameter family of n-dimensional representations which was first discovered in 1996 by Tong, Yang, and Ma. In order to do this, we classify all the irreducible complex ลฝ ลฝ . . representations of B for which rank y 1 s 2, where the are the n i i standard generators.

The complex orthogonal group O n acts on the n ร n matrices, M n , by restricting the adjoint action of GL n . This action provides us with an action on the ring of complex valued polynomial functions on the n ร n matrices, M n . The polynomials of degree d, denoted d M n , form a finite dimensiona
