On Jones knot Invariants and Vassiliev Invariants

چکیده
We show that the n-th derivative of a quantum group invariant, evaluated at 1, is a Vassiliev invariant while the derivative of the Jones polynomial, evaluated at a real number 6 = 1, is not a Vassiliev in variant. The coeecients of the classical Conway polynomial are known to be Vassiliev invariants. We show that the coeecients of the Jones polynomial are not vassiliev invariants.

On the Vassiliev Knot Invariants
The theory of knot invariants of finite type (Vassiliev invariants) is described. These invariants turn out to be at least as powerful as the Jones polynomial and its numerous generalizations coming from various quantum groups, and it is conjectured that these invariants are precisely as powerful as those polynomials. As invariants of finite type are much easier to define and manipulate than th...
متن کاملThe Polynomial Behaviour of Some Knot Invariants
Using the new approach of braiding sequences we reprove the Lin-Wang conjecture, giving a quadratic upper bound for the crossing number of alternating/positive knots, determining uniquely a Vassiliev invariant, and thus making orientation and mutation sensitivity of Vassiliev invariants decidable on alternating/positive knots/mutants only. We give an exponential upper bound for the number of Va...
متن کاملNew knot and link invariants
We study the new formulas of Th. Fiedler for the degree-3-Vassiliev invariants for knots in the 3-sphere and solid torus and present some results obtained by them. We show that a knot with Jones polynomial consisting of exactly two monomials must have at least 20 crossings.
متن کاملHeegaard–floer Homology for Singular Knots
Using the combinatorial description for knot Heegaard–Floer homology, we give a generalization to singular knots that does fit in the general program of categorification of Vassiliev finite–type invariants theory. Introduction Since the categorification of the Jones polynomial by Mikhail Khovanov in 1999 [Kh00], the study of knots and links via homological invariants has remained constantly on ...
متن کاملGauss Sum Invariants, Vassiliev Invariants and Braiding Sequences
We introduce a new approach to Vassiliev invariants. This approach deals with Vassiliev invariants directly on knots and does not make use of diagrams. We give a series of applications of this approach, (re)proving some new and known facts on Vassiliev invariants.
