We introduce the notion of modular $q$-holonomic modules whose fundamental matrices define a cocycle with improved analyticity properties and show that the generalised $q$-hypergeometric equation, as well as three key $q$-holonomic modules…
We present experimental results approximating the Jones polynomial using 4 qubits in a liquid state nuclear magnetic resonance quantum information processor. This is the first experimental implementation of a complete problem for the…
This paper connects two seemingly different ways of studying knots: quantum group invariants and the dynamics of Morse flows. For fibered knots, we define a two-variable series invariant by counting Morse flow loops in the complement. This…
This paper is devoted to the study of the log-convexity of combinatorial sequences. We show that the log-convexity is preserved under componentwise sum, under binomial convolution, and by the linear transformations given by the matrices of…
We give an explicit description of the behaviour of the root number in the family given by twists of an elliptic curve $E$ by the rational values of a polynomial $f(T)$. In particular, we give a criterion (on $f$ depending on $E$) for the…
For a poset whose Hasse diagram is a rooted plane forest $F$, we consider the corresponding tree descent polynomial $A_F(q)$, which is a generating function of the number of descents of the labelings of $F$. When the forest is a path,…
We employ the sl(2) foam cohomology to define a cohomology theory for oriented framed tangles whose components are labelled by irreducible representations of U_q(sl(2)). We show that the corresponding colored invariants of tangles can be…
We construct the q-twisted cohomology associated with the q-multiplicative function of Jordan-Pochhammer type at |q|=1. In this framework, we prove the Heine's relations and a connection formula for the q-hypergeometric function of the…
Twisted links are obtained from a base link by starting with a $n$-braid representation, choosing several ($m$) adjacent strands, and applying one or more twists to the set. Various restrictions may be applied, e.g. the twists may be…
In this paper we will present a homological model for Coloured Jones Polynomials. For each colour $N \in \mathbb {N}$, we will describe the invariant $J_N(L,q)$ as a graded intersection pairing of certain homology classes in a covering of…
When the parameter $q$ is a root of unity, the Temperley-Lieb algebra $TL_n(q)$ is non-semisimple for almost all $n$. In this work, using cellular methods, we give explicit generating functions for the dimensions of all the simple…
The Fibonacci sequence has been generalized in many ways. One of them is defined by the relation $t_n=at_{n-1}+t_{n-2}$ if $n$ is even, $t_n=bt_{n-1}+t_{n-2}$ if $n$ is odd, with initial values $t_0=0$ and $t_1=1$, where $a$ and $b$ are…
The theory of DAHA-Jones polynomials is extended from torus knots to their arbitrary iterations (for any reduced root systems and weights), which incudes the polynomiality, duality and other properties of the DAHA superpolynomials.…
The q-characters were introduced by Frenkel and mReshetikhin to study finite dimensional representations of the untwisted quantum affine algebra for q generic. The $\epsilon$-characters at roots of unity were constructed by Frenkel and…
We relate the stability of knot invariants under twisting a pair of strands to the stability of symmetric quivers under unlinking (or linking) operation. Starting from the HOMFLY-PT skein relations, we confirm the stable growth of…
We prove asymptotic formulas for the complex coefficients of $(\zeta q;q)_\infty^{-1}$, where $\zeta$ is a root of unity, and apply our results to determine secondary terms in the asymptotics for $p(a,b,n)$, the number of integer partitions…
We propose a gauge model of quantum electrodynamics (QED) and its nonabelian generalization from which we derive knot invariants such as the Jones polynomial. Our approach is inspired by the work of Witten who derived knot invariants from…
In this paper a new form of the Hossz\'u-Gluskin theorem is presented in terms of polyadic powers and using the language of diagrams. It is shown that the Hossz\'u-Gluskin chain formula is not unique and can be generalized ("deformed")…
[Original abstract (1992):] The modulus of quasipositivity q(K) of a knot K was introduced as a tool in the knot theory of complex plane curves, and can be applied to Legendrian knot theory in symplectic topology. It has also, however, a…
The theory of bottom tangles is used to construct a quantum fundamental group. On the other hand, the skein module is considered as a quantum analogue of the $SL(2)$ representation of the fundamental group. Here we construct the skein…
