Generators for the level $m$ congruence subgroups of braid groups
We prove for $m\geq1$ and $n\geq5$ that the level $m$ congruence subgroup
$B_n[m]$ of the braid group $B_n$ associated to the integral Burau
representation $B_n\to\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ is generated by $m$th powers
of half-twists and the braid Torelli group. This solves a problem of Margalit,
generalizing work of Assion, Brendle--Margalit, Nakamura, Stylianakis and
Wajnryb.
