The contraction cost of a tensor network depends on the contraction order. However, the optimal contraction ordering problem is known to be NP-hard. We show that the linear contraction ordering problem for tree tensor networks admits a…

This article contains general formulas for Tutte and Jones polynomials for families of knots and links given in Conway notation and "portraits of families"-- plots of zeroes of their corresponding Jones polynomials.
The tensor network, as a facterization of tensors, aims at performing the operations that are common for normal tensors, such as addition, contraction and stacking. However, due to its non-unique network structure, only the tensor network…
An important conjecture in knot theory relates the large-$N$, double scaling limit of the colored Jones polynomial $J_{K,N}(q)$ of a knot $K$ to the hyperbolic volume of the knot complement, $\text{Vol}(K)$. A less studied question is…
We investigate coincidences of the (one-variable) Jones polynomial amongst rational knots, what we call `Jones rational coincidences'. We provide moves on the continued fraction expansion of the associated rational which we prove do not…
There is a map, defined and studied by Jones, from Thompson's group $F$ to knots. Jones proved that every knot is in the image of this map -- that is, that every knot can be seen as the "knot closure" of a Thompson group element. We…
We give an explicit algorithm for calculating the Kauffman bracket of a link diagram from a Goeritz matrix for that link. Further, we show how the Jones polynomial can be recovered from a Goeritz matrix when the corresponding checkerboard…

We study the distribution of zeroes of the Jones polynomial $V_K(t)$ for a knot $K$. We have computed numerically the roots of the Jones polynomial for all prime knots with $N\leq 10$ crossings, and found the zeroes scattered about the unit…
We consider the probability of knotting in equilateral random polygons in Euclidean 3-dimensional space, which model, for instance, random polymers. Results from an extensive Monte Carlo dataset of random polygons indicate a universal…
