Kuperberg introduced web spaces for some Lie algebras which are generalizations of the Kauffman bracket skein module on a disk with marked points. We derive some formulas for $A_1$ and $A_2$ clasped web spaces by graphical calculus using…

The theory of the Kauffman bracket, which describes the Jones polynomial as a sum over closed circles formed by the planar resolution of vertices in a knot diagram, can be straightforwardly lifted from sl(2) to sl(N) at arbitrary N -- but…

We show how to represent sets in a linear space data structure such that expressions involving unions and intersections of sets can be computed in a worst-case efficient way. This problem has applications in e.g. information retrieval and…

It is shown that one can count $k$-edge paths in an $n$-vertex graph and $m$-set $k$-packings on an $n$-element universe, respectively, in time ${n \choose k/2}$ and ${n \choose mk/2}$, up to a factor polynomial in $n$, $k$, and $m$; in…

In this paper we compute the Kauffman bracket skein module of the complement of $(2, 2p+1)$-torus knots, $KBSM(T_{(2, 2p+1)}^c)$, via braids. We start by considering geometric mixed braids in $S^3$, the closure of which are mixed links in…

Quantum compiling addresses the problem of approximating an arbitrary quantum gate with a string of gates drawn from a particular finite set. It has been shown that this is possible for almost all choices of base sets and furthermore that…

We present a protocol for the Boolean matrix product of two $n\times b$ Boolean matrices on the congested clique designed for the situation when the rows of the first matrix or the columns of the second matrix are highly clustered in the…

We study the problem of computing matrix chain multiplications in a distributed computing cluster. In such systems, performance is often limited by the straggler problem, where the slowest worker dominates the overall computation latency.…

An n-dimensional \mu-component boundary link is a codimension 2 embedding of spheres L=\bigsqcup_{\mu}S^n \subset S^{n+2} such that there exist \mu disjoint oriented embedded (n+1)-manifolds which span the components of L. An F_\mu-link is…

We describe a way of encoding a Kauffman state as a set of tuples, similar to a Gauss code. Then we describe a procedure for using these state codes to determine the unoriented genus and crosscap number of any prime alternating knot or…

We give a general fixed parameter tractable algorithm to compute quantum invariants of links presented by diagrams, whose complexity is singly exponential in the carving-width (or the tree-width) of the diagram. In particular, we get a…

While well-known methods to list the intersections of either a list of segments or a complex polygon aim at achieving optimal time-complexity they often do so at the cost of memory comsumption and complex code. Real-life software…

Negami found an upper bound on the stick number $s(K)$ of a nontrivial knot $K$ in terms of the minimal crossing number $c(K)$ of the knot which is $s(K) \leq 2 c(K)$. Furthermore McCabe proved $s(K) \leq c(K) + 3$ for a $2$-bridge knot or…
