The author makes interesting use of the braid groups to study the problem of finding a 1-parameter family of diffeomorphisms of the plane having a prescribed (or observed) effect on a finite set of points in the plane. More generally, the author shows in certain cases when a parameterized set of such effects admits a similarly parameterized set of diffeomorphisms having such effects.
