%0 Journal Article %T Universal deformations of the finite quotients of the braid group on 3 strands %A Eirini Chavli %J Mathematics %D 2015 %I arXiv %X We prove that the quotients of the group algebra of the braid group on 3 strands by a generic quartic and quintic relation respectively, have finite rank. This is a special case of a conjecture by Brou\'{e}, Malle and Rouquier for the generic Hecke algebra of an arbitrary complex reflection group. Exploring the consequences of this case, we will prove that we can determine completely the irreducible representations of this braid group for dimension at most 5, thus reproving a classification of Tuba and Wenzl in a more general framework. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1504.02279v1
