More 1-cocycles for classical knots
Abstract
Let be the topological moduli space of long knots up to regular isotopy, and for any natural number let be the moduli space of all n-cables of framed long knots which are twisted by a string link to a knot in the solid torus . We upgrade the Vassiliev invariant of a knot to an integer valued combinatorial 1-cocycle for by a very simple formula. This 1-cocycle depends on a natural number with as a parameter and we obtain a polynomial-valued 1-cocycle by taking the Lagrange interpolation polynomial with respect to the parameter. We show that it induces a non-trivial pairing on already for .
