Lie Ideal Enhancements of Counting Invariants

Geometric Topology 2015-07-29 v2 Quantum Algebra

Abstract

We define enhancements of the quandle counting invariant for knots and links with a finite labeling quandle Q embedded in the quandle of units of a Lie algebra \mathfrak{a} using Lie ideals. We provide examples demonstrating that the enhancement is stronger than the associated unenhanced counting invariant.
