      There are natural actions of the braid groups on the products of the braid groups, called the Hurwitz action. In this paper the author first studies the roots of centralizers in the braid groups. By using the structure of the roots, he provides a criterion for the Hurwitz orbit to become finite and gives an upper bound of the size of a finite orbit in length 2 or degree 3 case.
