The Birman–Wenzl algebra, often denoted as \( BW_n \), is an algebraic structure that arises in the study of knot theory, representation theory, and those interactions with combinatorics. It is named after Joan Birman and Hans Wenzl, who introduced it in the context of their work on braids and coloring of knots.
