Symmetric Links and Conway Sums: Volume and Jones Polynomial

  • DAVID FUTER
چکیده

We obtain bounds on hyperbolic volume for periodic links and Conway sums of alternating tangles. For links that are Conway sums we also bound the hyperbolic volume in terms of the coefficients of the Jones polynomial.

A Weight System Derived from the Multivariable Conway Potential Function

In [3] D. Bar-Natan and S. Garoufalidis used a weight system for the Alexander polynomial of knots to prove the so-called Melvin–Morton–Rozansky conjecture [18, 21] which relates the Alexander polynomial and some coefficients of coloured Jones polynomial. Their weight system can be easily extended to the case of links. It is a natural problem to give a weight system for the multivariable Alexan...

A volume-ish theorem for the Jones polynomial of alternating knots

The Volume conjecture claims that the hyperbolic Volume of a knot is determined by the colored Jones polynomial. The purpose of this article is to show a Volume-ish theorem for alternating knots in terms of the Jones polynomial, rather than the colored Jones polynomial: The ratio of the Volume and certain sums of coefficients of the Jones polynomial is bounded from above and from below by const...

A cabling formula for the colored Jones polynomial

We prove an explicit cabling formula for the colored Jones polynomial. As an application we prove the volume conjecture for all zero volume knots and links, i.e. all knots and links that are obtained from the unknot by repeated cabling and connected sum.

Milne's volume function and vector symmetric polynomials

Abstract. The number of real roots of a system of polynomial equations fitting inside a given box can be counted using a vector symmetric polynomial introduced by P. Milne, the volume function. We provide the expansion of Milne’s volume function in the basis of monomial vector symmetric functions, and observe that only monomial functions of a particular kind appear in the expansion, the squaref...

Odd Khovanov Homology

We describe an invariant of links in S which is closely related to Khovanov’s Jones polynomial homology. Our construction replaces the symmetric algebra appearing in Khovanov’s definition with an exterior algebra. The two invariants have the same reduction modulo 2, but differ over Q. There is a reduced version which is a link invariant whose graded Euler characteristic is the normalized Jones ...
