Abstract

We deal with the well-known operation ofARTIN≐S Braid GroupB n on the free groupF n by automorphisms, and give a proof for a theorem ofBIRMAN/HILDEN (here Satz B) by showing, that the images of the generators ofF n underB n are of a special form (Satz C). The theory ofBRIESKORN≐S Automorphic Sets comes in here. With similar methods we give a proof of a theorem of Magnus saying thatB n operates on a certain polynomial ring effectively by automorphisms (here Satz 9.2).
