Cancellations in the degree of the colored Jones polynomial

Geometric Topology 2020-06-03 v1

Abstract

We give an alternate expansion of the colored Jones polynomial of pretzel links which recovers the degree formula in arXiv:1807.00957. As an application, we determine the degrees of the colored Jones polynomials of a new family of 3-tangle pretzel knots.
