摘要
In this paper I give estimates for the minimal crossing number, leading to a short proof that the crossing number is additive for torus links. These estimates are applied to several classes of links. Finally, I prove a part of a conjecture relating the HOMFLY polynomial and the Kauffman polynomial.
