Abstract

The colored sl3\mathfrak{sl}_{3} Jones polynomial J(n1,n2)sl3(L;q)J_{(n_{1}, n_{2})}^{\mathfrak{sl}_{3}}(L;q) are given by a link and an (n1,n2)(n_{1}, n_{2})-irreducible representation of sl3\mathfrak{sl}_{3}. In general, it is hard to calculate J(n1,n2)sl3(L;q)J_{(n_{1}, n_{2})}^{\mathfrak{sl}_{3}}(L;q) for an oriented link LL. However, we calculate the one-row sl3\mathfrak{sl}_{3} colored Jones polynomials J(n,0)sl3(P(α,β,γ);q)J_{(n, 0)}^{\mathfrak{sl}_{3}}(P(\alpha,\beta,\gamma);q) for three-parameter families of oriented pretzel links P(α,β,γ)P(\alpha,\beta,\gamma) by using Kuperberg's linear skein theory by setting n2=0n_{2}=0. Furthermore, we show the existence of the tails of J(n,0)sl3(P(2α+1,2β+1,2γ);q)J_{(n, 0)}^{\mathfrak{sl}_{3}}(P(2\alpha +1, 2\beta+1,2\gamma);q) for the alternating pretzel knots P(2α+1,2β+1,2γ)P(2\alpha +1, 2\beta+1,2\gamma).
