dynnikov_act — DRIVE braidpath op

• Data kinds: any × signal → table

• Call: import fullseye as fs; fs.ledger.dynnikov_act(coords, word) (to call the implementation directly, import braidpath; braidpath.dynnikov_act(coords, word); from the registry, opsdrive.get("dynnikov_act"))

• GPU: none (CPU reference implementation only)

Usage

Applies a braid word to arbitrary Dynnikov coordinates (a; b) (integer or real —— the formulas are piecewise linear).

coords is a dict (a, b) or a sequence of length 2(n − 1) (first half a, second half b). The number of strands is n = len(a) + 1. The relations σᵢσᵢ₊₁σᵢ = σᵢ₊₁σᵢσᵢ₊₁, σᵢσⱼ = σⱼσᵢ, σᵢσᵢ⁻¹ = 1 hold identically for every (a; b) (gate 1, on random real coordinates).

Returns: a dict of the same form as dynnikov_coordinates (real input stays float).
