Abstract

A knot semigroup is defined by A. Vernitski. A. Vernitski conjectured that the knot semigroup of the 2-bridge knot is isomorphic to an alternating sum semigroup. To support this conjecture, and as a first main result, we prove that the knot semigroup of the double twist knot is isomorphic to an alternating sum semigroup. Moreover, as a second main result, we construct a link invariant constructed by the Gelfand-Kiriliov dimension of algebra.
