A class function on the braid group is derived from the Kauffman link invariant. This function is used to construct representations of the braid groups depending on 2 2 parameters. The decomposition of the corresponding algebras into irreducible components is given and it is shown how they are related to Jones’ algebras and to Brauer’s centralizer algebras.
