We study the asymptotic behavior of the $N$-dimensional colored Jones polynomial of the figure-eight knot, evaluated at $\exp\bigl((u+2p\pi\sqrt{-1})/N\bigr)$ as $N$ tends to infinity, where $u>\operatorname{arccosh}(3/2)$ is a real number…
We calculate quantum averages of Wilson loops (holonomies) in gauge theories on the Euclidean noncommutative plane, using a path-integral representation of the star-product. We show how the perturbative expansion emerges from a concise…
Following the suggestion of arXiv:1407.6319 to lift the knot polynomials for virtual knots and links from Jones to HOMFLY, we apply the evolution method to calculate them for an infinite series of twist-like virtual knots and antiparallel…
We present a universal knot polynomials for 2- and 3-strand torus knots in adjoint representation, by universalization of appropriate Rosso-Jones formula. According to universality, these polynomials coincide with adjoined colored HOMFLY…
We study the asymptotic behavior of the $N$-dimensional colored Jones polynomial of the figure-eight knot evaluated at $\exp\bigl((\kappa+2p\pi\i/N\bigr)$, where $\kappa:=\arccosh(3/2)$ and $p$ is a positive integer. We can prove that it…
Given a knot in 3-space, one can associate a sequence of Laurrent polynomials, whose $n$th term is the $n$th colored Jones polynomial. The Generalized Volume Conjecture states that the value of the $n$-th colored Jones polynomial at $\exp(2…

Uniform asymptotic expansions are derived for reverse generalised Bessel polynomials of large degree $n$, real parameter $a$, and complex argument $z$, which are simpler than previously known results. The defining differential equation is…
We present a simple phenomenological formula which approximates the hyperbolic volume of a knot using only a single evaluation of its Jones polynomial at a root of unity. The average error is just $2.86$% on the first $1.7$ million knots,…
The quon algebra, which interpolates between the Bose and Fermi algebras and depends on a free paramenter $q$, is used to generate a deformed Dyson boson expansion of the quadrupole operator. Then we obtain a quadrupole-quadrupole…
We study the asymptotic expansion of the colored Jones polynomial (the Melvin-Morton expansion) using a recursion formula for the deframed universal weight system for the $sl(2)$ Lie algebra. Combined with the formula for the universal…
The functional flow equations for the Legendre effective action, with respect to changes in a smooth cutoff, are approximated by a derivative expansion; no other approximation is made. This results in a set of coupled non-linear…
We study the shift-Ramanujan expansion (see 1705.07193) of general $f,g$ satisfying Ramanujan Conjecture, in order to get formulae, for their shifted convolution sum, say $C_{f,g}(N,a)$, of length $N$ and shift $a$ (so, the Ramanujan…
Like all other knot polynomials, the superpolynomials should be defined in arbitrary representation R of the gauge group in (refined) Chern-Simons theory. However, not a single example is yet known of a superpolynomial beyond symmetric or…
Let $\bx_j = \btheta +\bep_j, j=1,...,n$, be observations of an unknown parameter $\btheta$ in a Euclidean or separable Hilbert space $\scrH$, where $\bep_j$ are noises as random elements in $\scrH$ from a general distribution. We study the…
Turning the skein relation for HOMFLY into a Fibonacci recurrence, we prove that there are only three rational specializations of HOMFLY polynomial: Alexander-Conway, Jones, and a new one. Using the recurrence relation, we find general and…
We provide methods to compute the colored HOMFLY polynomials of knots and links with symmetric representations based on the linear skein theory. By using diagrammatic calculations, several formulae for the colored HOMFLY polynomials are…
Defining a family of recurrences, we generalize Comtet's formula for the generating function of the enumeration of indecomposable permutations. Consequently, we generalize Panaitopol's asymptotic expansion for the prime counting function,…
As is well-known, the Witten deformation of the De Rham complex computes the De Rham cohomology. In this paper we study the Witten deformation on a noncompact manifold and restrict it to differential forms which behave polynomially near…
The refined Chern-Simons theory is a one-parameter deformation of the ordinary Chern-Simons theory on Seifert manifolds. It is defined via an index of the theory on N M5 branes, where the corresponding one-parameter deformation is a natural…
