Span of the Jones polynomials of certain v-adequate virtual links

Geometric Topology 2021-03-29 v2

Abstract

It is known that the Kauffman-Murasugi-Thislethwaite type inequality becomes an equality for any (possibly virtual) adequate link diagram. We refine this condition. As an application we obtain a criterion for virtual link diagram with exactly one virtual crossing to represent a properly virtual link.
