Two knots in three-space are S-equivalent if they are indistinguishable by Seifert matrices. We show that S-equivalence is generated by the doubled-delta move on knot diagrams. It follows as a corollary that a knot has trivial Alexander…
The variant of Fedosov construction based on fairly general fiberwise product in the Weyl bundle is studied. We analyze generalized star products of functions, of sections of endomorphisms bundle, and those generating deformed bimodule…
Double coverings of the orthogonal groups of the real and complex spaces are considered. The relation between discrete transformations of these spaces and fundamental automorphisms of Clifford algebras is established, where an isomorphism…
We give a new construction of the one-variable Alexander polynomial of an oriented knot or link, and show that it generalizes to a vector valued invariant of oriented tangles.
We suggest a categorification procedure for the SO(2N) one-variable specialization of the two-variable Kauffman polynomial. The construction has many similarities with the HOMFLYPT categorification: a planar graph formula for the polynomial…
Recently, a number of interesting relations have been discovered between generalised Pauli/Dirac groups and certain finite geometries. Here, we succeeded in finding a general unifying framework for all these relations. We introduce…
We show that if the fundamental group of the complement of a rationally homologically fibered knot in a rational homology 3-sphere is bi-orderable, then its Alexander polynomial has at least one positive real root. Our argument can be…
I. M. Gelfand and D. B. Fuks have studied the cohomology of the Lie algebra of vector fields on a manifold. In this article, we generalize their main tools to compute the Leibniz cohomology, by extending the two spectral sequences…
In this study of the Reidemeister moves within the classical knot theory, we focus on hard diagrams of knots and links, categorizing them as either rigid or shaky based on their adaptability to certain moves. We establish that every link…
In this paper we introduce a generalisation of the notion of holonomy for connections over a bundle map on a principal fibre bundle. We prove that, as in the standard theory on principal connections, the holonomy groups are Lie subgroups of…
The total homology of the loop space of the configuration space of ordered distinct n points in R^m has a structure of a Hopf algebra defined by the 4-term relations if m>2. We describe a relation of between the cohomology of this loop…
Gordon and Litherland's paper $\textit{On the Signature of a link}$ introduced a bilinear form that simultaneously unifies both the quadratic forms of Trotter and Goeritz. This remarkable pairing of combinatorics and topology has had…
Soergel bimodules and their Hochschild homology are known to be important in the context of link homology. In this article we observe that Soergel bimodules may be naturally identified as the cohomology of well-defined objects in the…
We introduce a new operad-like structure that we call a reconnectad; the ``input'' of an element of a reconnectad is a finite simple graph, rather than a finite set, and ``compositions'' of elements are performed according to the notion of…
The `spider theorem' for a general Frobenius algebra $A$, classifies all maps $A^{\otimes m}\to A^{\otimes n}$ that are built from the operations and, in a graphical representation, represented by a {\it connected} diagram. Here the algebra…
Using general principles in the theory of vertex operator algebras and their twisted modules, we obtain a bosonic, twisted construction of a certain central extension of a Lie algebra of differential operators on the circle, for an…
Homologically fibered knots are knots whose exteriors satisfy the same homological conditions as fibered knots. In our previous paper, we observed that for such a knot, higher-order Alexander invariants defined by Cochran, Harvey and Friedl…
We prove a relative version of the Picard-Lefschetz theorem, describing the variation of relative homology groups $H_d(Y_t \setminus A_t,B_t\setminus A_t)$ in the fibers of a smooth fiber bundle $Y \to T$ of complex manifolds with $A\cup B…
The purpose of this paper is to define cohomology structures on Hom-associative algebras and Hom-Lie algebras. The first and second coboundary maps were introduced by Makhlouf and Silvestrov in the study of one-parameter formal deformations…
We compute the first cohomology group of the symmetric algebra of the universal \'etale $p$-adic local system on the tower of coverings of Drinfeld's $p$-adic half-plane. The result takes a factorized form, using the $p$-adic Langlands…
