We propose a definition of the rotation number for transverse graph diagrams, extending the classical notion of the rotation number for plane curves. Using this, we introduce a normalized multi-variable Alexander polynomial for framed,…
The fundamental quandle is a complete invariant for unoriented tame knots \cite{JO, Ma} and non-split links \cite{FR}. The proof involves proving a relationship between the components of the fundamental quandle and the cosets of the…
In this paper we construct invariants of 3-manifolds "\`a la Reshetikhin-Turaev" in the setting of non-semi-simple ribbon tensor categories. We give concrete examples of such categories which lead to a family of 3-manifold invariants…
To solve MHD problems within the framework of the theory of two-scale mean fields, it is important to study the invariants of magnetic lines. Such invariants are constructed on the basis of invariants of classical links, which must satisfy…
Many polynomial invariants are defined on graphs for encoding the combinatorial information and researching them algebraically. In this paper, we introduce the cycle polynomial and the path polynomial of directed graphs for counting cycles…
A theory of signatures for odd-dimensional links in rational homology spheres is studied via their generalized Seifert surfaces. The jump functions of signatures are shown invariant under appropriately generalized concordance and a special…
It is shown that, if a link $\tilde{L}\subset S^3$ is $p^k$-periodic with $p$ prime and $k\ge 1$, and $L$ is the quotient link, then the groups of $\tilde{L}$ and $L$ can be related by counting homomorphisms to any finite group $\Gamma$…
We consider the moduli spaces $\mathcal{M}_d(\ell)$ of a closed linkage with n links and prescribed lengths in d-dimensional Euclidean space. For d>3 these spaces are no longer manifolds generically, but they have the structure of a…
We introduce a natural-valued complexity c(X) for pairs X=(M,L), where M is a closed orientable 3-manifold and L is a link contained in M. The definition employs simple spines, but for well-behaved X's we show that c(X) equals the minimal…
We compute two-term skein modules of framed oriented links in oriented 3-manifolds. They contain the self-writhe and total linking number invariants of framed oriented links in a universal way. The relations in a natural presentation of the…
Given any oriented link diagram, two types of new knot invariants are constructed. They satisfy some generalized skein relations. The coefficients of each invariant is from a commutative ring. Homomorphisms and representations of those…
The main result of this work is the following: for volume preserving flows on compact manifolds with the $C^r$ topology, $1 \leqq r \leqq \infty$ , the closure of every invariant manifold of periodic orbits and singularities is a chain…
A theorem of Mumford states that, on complex surfaces, any normal isolated singularity whose link is diffeomorphic to a sphere is actually a smooth point. While this property fails in higher dimensions, McLean asks whether the contact…
A link L in the 3-sphere is called Brunnian if every proper sublink of L is trivial. In a previous paper, the first author proved that the restriction to Brunnian links of any Goussarov-Vassiliev finite type invariant of (n+1)-component…
We prove Mayberry-Murasugi's formula for links in homology 3-spheres, which was proved before only for links in the 3-sphere. Our proof uses Franz-Reidemeister torsions.
We consider the link and three-manifold invariants from arXiv:1912.02063, which are defined in terms of certain non-semisimple finite ribbon categories $\mathcal{C}$ together with a choice of tensor ideal and modified trace. If the ideal is…
We introduce a framework to analyze knots and links in an unmarked solid torus. We discuss invariants that detect when such links are equivalent under an ambient homeomorphism, and show that the multivariable Alexander polynomial is such in…
We consider links that are alternating on surfaces embedded in a compact 3-manifold. We show that under mild restrictions, the complement of the link decomposes into simpler pieces, generalising the polyhedral decomposition of alternating…
In this paper, we introduce a generalized concept of vertex transitivity in graphs called generalized vertex transitivity. We put forward a new invariant called transitivity number of a graph. The value of this invariant in different…
Our main is to study periodic orbits of linear and invariant flows on a real, connected Lie group. Since each linear flow $\varphi_t$ has a derivation associated $\mathcal{D}$, we show that the existence of periodic orbits of $\varphi_t$ is…
