The Jones polynomial was originally defined by constructing a Markov trace on the sequence of Temperley-Lieb algebras. In this paper we give a programme for constructing other link invariants by the same method. The data for the constructions is a representation of the three string braid group.

In this paper we show that each element ฮฑ of the pure braid group P n or the pure symmetric automorphism group H (n) of the free group F n of rank n can be represented as the special Lie algebra of Cartan type. There is a corresponding action of these groups on C[[a 1 , . . . , a r ]] and C[a 1 , .
