چکیده
We define the slope of a colored link in an integral homology sphere, associated to admissible characters on group. Away from certain singular locus, slope is rational function which can be regarded as multivariate gen

Computing boundary slopes of 2-bridge links
We describe an algorithm for computing boundary slopes of 2-bridge links. As an example, we work out the slopes of the links obtained by 1/k surgery on one component of the Borromean rings. A table of all boundary slopes of all 2-bridge links with 10 or less crossings is also included.
متن کاملSignatures of Covering Links
Abstract. The theory of signature invariants of links in rational homology spheres is applied to covering links of homology boundary links. From patterns and Seifert matrices of homology boundary links, an explicit formula is derived to compute signature invariants of their covering links. Using the formula, we produce fused boundary links that are positive mutants of ribbon links but are not c...
متن کاملSlopes and Colored Jones Polynomials of Adequate Links
Garoufalidis conjectured a relation between the boundary slopes of a knot and its colored Jones polynomials. More precisely, certain boundary slopes are detected by the sequence of degrees of the colored Jones polynomials. We verify this conjecture for adequate knots, a class that vastly generalizes that of alternating knots.
متن کاملBoundary Slopes of 2-Bridge Links Determine the Crossing Number
A diagonal surface in a link exterior M is a properly embedded, incompressible, boundary incompressible surface which furthermore has the same number of boundary components and same slope on each component of ∂M . We derive a formula for the boundary slope of a diagonal surface in the exterior of a 2-bridge link which is analogous to the formula for the boundary slope of a 2-bridge knot found b...
متن کاملSignatures of Links in Rational Homology Spheres
A theory of signatures for odd-dimensional links in rational homology spheres are studied via their generalized Seifert surfaces. The jump functions of signatures are shown invariant under appropriately generalized concordance and a special care is given to accommodate 1-dimensional links with mutual linking. Furthermore our concordant theory of links in rational homology spheres remains highly...
