$F$-polynomials of tabulated virtual knots

Abstract

A sequence of FF-polynomials {FKn(t,)}n=1\{ F^n_K (t, \ell)\}_{n=1}^{\infty} of virtual knots KK was defined by Kaur, Prabhakar, and Vesnin in 2018. These polynomials have been expressed in terms of index value of crossing and nn-writhe of KK. By the construction, FF-polynomials are generalizations of the Kauffman's Affine Index Polynomial, and are invariants of virtual knot KK. We present values of FF-polynomials of oriented virtual knots having at most four classical crossings in a diagram.
