Vassiliev invariants for pretzel knots

Abstract

We compute Vassiliev invariants up to order six for arbitrary pretzel knots, which depend on g+1g+1 parameters n1,,ng+1n_1,\ldots,n_{g+1}. These invariants are symmetric polynomials in n1,,ng+1n_1,\ldots,n_{g+1} whose degree coincide with their order. We also discuss their topological and integer-valued properties.
