On the universal sl2 invariant of ribbon bottom tangles

چکیده

A bottom tangle is a tangle in a cube consisting of arc components whose boundary points are on a line in the bottom square of the cube. A ribbon bottom tangle is a bottom tangle whose closure is a ribbon link. For every n-component ribbon bottom tangle T , we prove that the universal invariant JT of T associated to the quantized enveloping algebra Uh(sl2) of the Lie algebra sl2 is contained in a certain Z[q, q ]subalgebra of the n-fold completed tensor power U ⊗̂n h (sl2) of Uh(sl2). This result is applied to the colored Jones polynomial of ribbon links.

On the universal sl2 invariant of boundary bottom tangles

The universal sl2 invariant of bottom tangles has a universality property for the colored Jones polynomial of links. Habiro conjectured that the universal sl2 invariant of boundary bottom tangles takes values in certain subalgebras of the completed tensor powers of the quantized enveloping algebra Uh(sl2) of the Lie algebra sl2. In the present paper, we prove an improved version of Habiro’s con...

The Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant, Turaev's TQFT, and many related constructions rely on the encoding of certain ribbon tangles (n-string links, or n-ribbon handles) as n-forms on the coend of a ribbon category. We introduce the monoidal category of Hopf diagrams, and describe a universal encoding of ribbon string links as Hopf diagrams. This universal encoding is an injective monoidal functor a...

Bottom tangles and universal invariants

A bottom tangle is a tangle in a cube consisting only of arc components, each of which has the two endpoints on the bottom line of the cube, placed next to each other. We introduce a subcategory B of the category of framed, oriented tangles, which acts on the set of bottom tangles. We give a finite set of generators of B , which provides an especially convenient way to generate all the bottom t...
