Analogously to the construction of Suzuki and Vazirani, we construct representations of the $GL_m$-type Double Affine Hecke Algebra at roots of unity. These representations are graded and the weight spaces for the $X$-variables are…

Let {T_n} be the bipolar filtration of the smooth concordance group of topologically slice knots, which was introduced by Cochran, Harvey, and Horn. It is known that for each n not equal to 1 the quotient group T_n/T_{n+1} has infinite rank…

Colored knot polynomials possess a peculiar Z-expansion in certain combinations of differentials, which depends on the representation. The coefficients of this expansion are functions of the three variables (A,q,t) and can be considered as…

In the cabling procedure for HOMFLY polynomials colored HOMFLY polynomials of a knot are obtained from ordinary HOMFLY of the cabled knot with extra twists added. Thus colored polynomials can be seen as relation between HOMFLYs of cabled…

Polynomial invariants constitute a dynamic and essential area of study in the mathematical theory of knots. From the pioneer Alexander polynomial, the revolutionary Jones polynomial, to the collectively discovered HOMFLYPT polynomial, just…

The Alexander polynomials \Delta_{n,3}(t) and \Delta_{n,4}(t) are presented as a sum of the Alexander polynomials \Delta_{k,2}(t). These polynomials are also expressed in the form of a sum of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind. These…

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…

Two doubly indexed families of homogeneous and isobaric polynomials in several indeterminates are considered: the (partial) exponential Bell polynomials $B_{n,k}$ and a new family $S_{n,k}$ such that $X_1^{-(2n-1)}S_{n,k}$ and $B_{n,k}$…

This paper contains a proof that chromatic weight systems, introduced by Chmutov, Duzhin and Lando, can be expressed in terms of weight systems associated with direct sums of the Lie algebras gl_n and so_n. As a consequence the Vassiliev…

In this note, we describe a connection between the enumerative geometry of curves in K3 surfaces and the chiral ring of an auxiliary superconformal field theory. We consider the invariants calculated by Yau--Zaslow (capturing the Euler…

We introduce novel polynomial deformations of the Lie algebra $sl(2)$. We construct their finite-dimensional irreducible representations and the corresponding differential operator realizations. We apply our results to a class of spin…

We identify 998 closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds whose volumes are rationally related to Dedekind zeta values, with coprime integers $a$ and $b$ giving $a/b vol(M)=(-D)^{3/2}/(2\pi)^{2n-4} (\zeta_K(2))/(2\zeta(2))$ for a manifold M whose…

We give a shorter proof of the recurrence relation for the domination polynomial $\gamma (P_{n},t)$ and for the number $\gamma _{k}(P_{n})$ of dominating $k$-sets of the path with $n$ vertices. For every positive integers $n$ and $k,$…

Let $\Sigma(f)$ be critical points of a polynomial $f \in \mathbb{K}[x,y]$ in the plane $\mathbb{K}^2$, where $\mathbb{K}$ is $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. Our goal is to study the critical point map $\mathfrak{S}_d$, by sending polynomials…

Denote by $J_m$ the Jacobian variety of the hyperelliptic curve defined by the affine equation $y^2=x^m+1$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, where $m \geq 3$ is a fixed positive integer. In this paper, we compute the Sato-Tate group of $J_m$. Currently,…

We show that any of the new knot invariants obtained from Chern-Simons theory based on an arbitrary non-abelian gauge group do not distinguish isotopically inequivalent mutant knots and links. In an attempt to distinguish these knots and…
