Writhe-like invariants of alternating links

نویسندگان

چکیده

It is known that the writhe calculated from any reduced alternating link diagram of same (alternating) has value. That is, it a invariant if we restrict ourselves to diagrams. This due fact diagrams are obtainable each other via flypes and do not change writhe. In this paper, introduce several quantities derived Seifert graphs We prove they “writhe-like” invariants, namely general but invariants when restricted The determination these elementary non-recursive so easy calculate. demonstrate many different links can be easily distinguished by new even for large, complicated knots which such as Jones polynomial hard compute. As an application, also derive only condition strongly invertible rational link.

Nullification Writhe and Chirality of Alternating Links

In this paper, we show how to split the writhe of reduced projections of oriented alternating links into two parts, called the nullification writhe wx, and the remaining writhe wy , such that the sum of these quantities equals the writhe w and each quantity remains an invariant of isotopy. The chirality of oriented alternating links can be detected by a non-zero wx or wy, which constitutes an i...

The Khovanov’s Invariants for Alternating Links

In this paper, we prove the first conjecture of Bar-Natan, Garo-ufalidis, and Khovanov's on the Khovanov's invariants for alternating knots. 1. The map Φ The first conjecture states that there is an almost pairing of the cohomology groups of degree difference (1,4), so it is natural to think of a map of degree (1,4) on the cohomology groups. On chain level, the map Φ is defined in the same fash...

Jones Polynomials of Alternating Links

Let Jk(*) = nrtr + • ■ • + asta, r > s, be the Jones polynomial of a knot if in S3. For an alternating knot, it is proved that r — s is bounded by the number of double points in any alternating projection of K. This upper bound is attained by many alternating knots, including 2-bridge knots, and therefore, for these knots, r — s gives the minimum number of double points among all alternating pr...

Analytic Invariants of Boundary Links

Using basic topology and linear algebra, we define a plethora of invariants of boundary links whose values are power series with noncommuting variables. These turn out to be useful and elementary reformulations of an invariant originally defined by M. Farber [Fa2].

Some Invariants of Pretzel Links

Abstract. We show that nontrivial classical pretzel knots L(p, q, r) are hyperbolic with eight exceptions which are torus knots. We find Conway polynomials of npretzel links using a new computation tree. As applications, we compute the genera of n-pretzel links using these polynomials and find the basket number of pretzel links by showing that the genus and the canonical genus of a pretzel link...
