Abstract: We find the minimum dilatation of pseudo-Anosov braids on n-punctured discs for 3 <= n <= 8. This covers the results of Song-Ko-Los (n=4) and Ham-Song (n=5). The proof is elementary, and uses the Lefschetz formula.


The minimum dilatation of pseudo-Anosov braids for \(n\)-punctured discs, \(3\leq n\leq 8\), is presented in this work. The result is obtained by an elementary proof based on the Lefschetz formula and covers previous results for \(n=4,5\).
