A Diagrammatic Multivariate Alexander Invariant of Tangles
Recently, Bigelow defined a diagrammatic method for calculating the Alexander polynomial of a knot or link by resolving crossings in a planar algebra. I will present my multivariate version of Bigelow’s calculation. The advantage to my algorithm is that it generalizes to a multivariate tangle invariant up to Reidemeister I. I will conclude with a possible link to subfactor planar algebras from ...

متن کاملA Diagrammatic Alexander Invariant of Tangles
We give a new construction of the one-variable Alexander polynomial of an oriented knot or link, and show that it generalizes to a vector valued invariant of oriented tangles.
متن کاملThe Gromov invariant and the Donaldson{Smith standard surface count
Simon Donaldson and Ivan Smith recently studied symplectic surfaces in symplectic 4{manifolds X by introducing an invariant DS associated to any Lefschetz bration on blowups of X which counts holomorphic sections of a relative Hilbert scheme that is constructed from the bration. Smith has shown that DS satis es a duality relation identical to that satis ed by the Gromov invariant Gr introduced ...
متن کاملGromov ’ s invariant and the volume of a hyperbolic manifold
This is an electronic edition of the 1980 notes distributed by Princeton University. The text was typed in T E X by Sheila Newbery, who also scanned the figures. Typos have been corrected (and probably others introduced), but otherwise no attempt has been made to update the contents. Numbers on the right margin correspond to the original edition's page numbers. Thurston's Three-Dimensional Geom...
