Abstract

S. Kamada introduced finite type invariants of knotted surfaces in 4-space associated with finger moves and 1-handle surgeries. In this paper, we define finite type invariants of surface braids associated with simple 1-handle surgeries and prove that a certain set of finite type invariants controls all finite type invariants. As a consequence, we see that every finite type invariant is not a complete invariant.
