Abstract

The nn-loop Kontsevich invariant of knots takes its value in the completion of the space of nn-loop open Jacobi diagrams, which is an infinite dimensional vector space. Since the 1-loop part is presented by the Alexander polynomial, we are interested in the image of the 2\geq 2-loop Kontsevich invariant of knots having the same Alexander polynomial. In this paper, we show that for n2n\geq 2 the subspace generated by the image of the nn-loop Kontsevich invariant of genus g\leq g knots having the same Alexander polynomial is finite dimensional. Further, we give some concrete calculations about those subspaces and dimensions in several simple cases.
