We characterize all simple unitarizable representations of the braid group B 3 on complex vector spaces of dimension d ≤ 5. In particular, we prove that if σ 1 and σ 2 denote the two generating twists of B 3 , then a simple representation ρ : B 3 → GL(V) (for dim V ≤ 5) is unitarizable if and only if the eigenvalues λ 1 , λ 2 ,. .. , λ d of ρ(σ 1) are distinct, satisfy |λ i | = 1 and µ (d) 1i >...

HANS – the Neugebauer Primary based color separation and halftoning print control approach – was presented in broad terms at CIC18. The present paper provides an in–depth look at how HANS color separation can be optimized, what level of variety it provides access to and how it can be used for direct optimization of print attributes. The results show that even in the case of having only three co...
