We give another proof of a theorem of D. Prasad (Theorem 2, \textit{Israel J. Math.} 2016), which is also a classical result of Littlewood--Richardson (Theorem VI, \textit{Q. J. Math.} 1934). For integers $m,n \ge 2$, this result calculates…

The Alexander polynomial of a knot has been generalized in three different ways to give twisted invariants. The resulting invariants are usually referred to as twisted Alexander polynomials, higher-order Alexander polynomials and…

We defined generalized \delta-derivations of algebra A as linear mapping \chi associated with usual \delta-derivation \phi by the rule \chi(xy)=\delta(\chi(x)y+x\phi(y))=\delta(\phi(x)y+x\chi(y)) for any x,y \in A. We described generalized…

Classical Gon\v{c}arov polynomials are polynomials which interpolate derivatives. Delta Gon\v{c}arov polynomials are polynomials which interpolate delta operators, e.g., forward and backward difference operators. We extend fundamental…

Let $K[X_d,Y_d]=K[x_1,\ldots,x_d,y_1,\ldots,y_d]$ be the polynomial algebra in $2d$ variables over a field $K$ of characteristic 0 and let $\delta$ be the derivation of $K[X_d,Y_d]$ defined by $\delta(y_i)=x_i$, $\delta(x_i)=0$,…

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional algebraic representation over an algebraically closed field $K$ of a group $G$. For $m > 0$, we study the invariant rings $K[V^{ m}]^G$ for the diagonal action of $G$ on $V^m$. In characteristic zero, a theorem…

We give a Conway-Gordon type formula for invariants of knots and links in a spatial complete four-partite graph $K_{3,3,1,1}$ in terms of the square of the linking number and the second coefficient of the Conway polynomial. As an…

We introduce new simplicial complexes by using various invariants and local moves for knots, which give generalizations of the Gordian complex defined by Hirasawa and Uchida. In particular, we focus on the simplicial complex defined by…

This talk is a report on joint work with A. Vaintrob [arXiv:math.CO/0109104 and math.GT/0111102]. It is organised as follows. We begin by recalling how the classical Matrix-Tree Theorem relates two different expressions for the lowest…

We introduce the generalized equidistant Chebyshev polynomials T(k,h) of kind k of hyperkind h, where k,h are positive integers. They are obtained by a generalization of standard and monic Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second…

We find a single two-parameter skein relation on trivalent graphs, the quantum exceptional relation, that specializes to a skein relation associated to each exceptional Lie algebra (in the adjoint representation). If a slight strengthening…

We show two results about the Conway potential function which is known as the normalized multivariable Alexander polynomial. We first show that the Conway potential function introduced by Kauffman in "Formal Knot Theory" is indeed a link…

We relate some terms on the boundary of the Newton polygon of the Alexander polynomial $\Delta(x,y)$ of a rational link to the number and length of monochromatic twist sites in a particular diagram that we call the standard form. Normalize…

Using the skew-Hopf pairing, we obtain $\mathcal{R}$-matrix for the two-parameter quantum algebra $U_{v,t}$. We further construct a strict monoidal functor $\mathcal{T}$ from the tangle category $(\mathrm{OTa},\otimes, \emptyset)$ to the…

Let $q$ be an odd prime power and let $X(m,q)$ be the set of symmetric bilinear forms on an $m$-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$. The partition of $X(m,q)$ induced by the action of the general linear group gives rise to a…

We study 3-dimensional BF theories and define observables related to knots and links. The quantum expectation values of these observables give the coefficients of the Alexander-Conway polynomial.

We introduce a new type of reduction of inversive difference polynomials that is associated with a partition of the basic set of automorphisms $\sigma$ and uses a generalization of the concept of effective order of a difference polynomial.…

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 compute the universal weight system for Vassiliev invariants coming from the Lie superalgebra gl(1|1) applying the construction of \cite{YB}. This weight system is a function from the space of chord diagrams to the center $Z$ of the…

Let $\alpha_m$ and $\beta_n$ be two sequences of real numbers supported on $[M, 2M]$ and $[N, 2N]$ with $M = X^{1/2 - \delta}$ and $N = X^{1/2 + \delta}$. We show that there exists a $\delta_0 > 0$ such that the multiplicative convolution…
