Abstract: Braid matrices hatR(heta), corresponding to vector representations, are spectrally decomposed obtaining a ratio fi(heta)/fi(heta) for the coefficient of each projector Pi appearing in the decomposition. This directly yields a factorization (F(heta))1F(heta) for the braid matrix, implying also the relation hatR(heta)hatR(heta)=I.This is achieved for GLq(n),SOq(2n+1),SOq(2n),Spq(2n) for all n and also for various other interesting cases including the 8-vertex matrix.We explain how the limits hetaopminfty can be interpreted to provide factorizations of the standard (non-Baxterized) braid matrices. A systematic approach to diagonalization of projectors and hence of braid matrices is presented with explicit constructions for GLq(2),GLq(3),SOq(3),SOq(4),Spq(4) and various other cases such as the 8-vertex one. For a specific nested sequence of projectors diagonalization is obtained for all dimensions. In each factor F(heta) our diagonalization again factors out all dependence on the spectral parameter heta as a diagonal matrix. The canonical property implemented in the diagonalizers is mutual orthogonality of the rows. Applications of our formalism to the construction of Loperators and transfer matrices are indicated. In an Appendix our type of factorization is compared to another one proposed by other authors.
