Abstract

This paper is a next step in the project of systematic description of colored knot polynomials started in arXiv:1506.00339. In this paper, we managed to explicitly find the inclusive\textit{inclusive} Racah matrices, i.e. the whole set of mixing matrices in channels R3QR^{\otimes 3}\longrightarrow Q with all possible QQ, for R=[3,3]R=[3,3]. The case R=[3,3]R=[3,3] is a multiplicity free case as well as R=[2,2]R=[2,2] obtained in arXiv:1605.03098. The calculation is made possible by the use of highest weight method with the help of Gelfand-Tseitlin tables. The result allows one to evaluate and investigate [3,3][3,3]-colored polynomials for arbitrary 3-strand knots, and this confirms many previous conjectures on various factorizations, universality, and differential expansions. With the help of a method developed in arXiv:1605.04881 we manage to calculate {\it exclusive} Racah matrices SS and Sˉ\bar S in R=[3,3]R=[3,3]. Our results confirm a calculation of these matrices in arXiv:1606.06015, which was based on the conjecture of explicit form of differential expansion for twist knots. Explicit answers for Racah matrices and [3,3][3,3]-colored polynomials for 3-strand knots up to 10 crossings are available at http://knotebook.org.
