In this note we define a polynomial invariant for colored links by a skein relation. It specializes to the Jones polynomial for classical links.
A group invariant for links in thickened closed orientable surfaces is studied. Associated polynomial invariants are defined. The group detects nontriviality of a virtual link and determines its virtual genus.
We introduce colorings of oriented surface-links by biquasiles using marked graph diagrams. We use these colorings to define counting invariants and Boltzmann enhancements of the biquasile counting invariants for oriented surface-links. We…
We introduce and investigate dichromatic singular links. We also construct G-Family of singquandles and use them to define counting invariants for unoriented dichromatic singular links. We provide some examples to show that these invariants…
In this paper, we use `generalized Seifert surfaces' to extend the Levine-Tristram signature to colored links in S^3. This yields an integral valued function on the m-dimensional torus, where m is the number of colors of the link. The case…
We construct an equivariant colored sl(N)-homology for links, which generalizes both the colored sl(N)-homology defined by the author and the equivariant sl(N)-homology defined by Krasner. The construction is a straightforward…
For any fixed surface Sigma of genus g, we give an algorithm to decide whether a graph G of girth at least five embedded in Sigma is colorable from an assignment of lists of size three in time O(|V(G)|). Furthermore, we can allow a subgraph…
This article presents new colored link invariants by introducing the concepts of multi-quandles and topological multi-quandles.
Quandle coloring quivers are directed graph-valued invariants of oriented knots and links, defined using a choice of finite quandle $X$ and set $S\subset\mathrm{Hom}(X,X)$ of endomorphisms. From a quandle coloring quiver, a polynomial knot…
We employ the sl(2) foam cohomology to define a cohomology theory for oriented framed tangles whose components are labelled by irreducible representations of U_q(sl(2)). We show that the corresponding colored invariants of tangles can be…
In this paper, we define invariants of links in terms of colorings of link diagrams and prove that these invariants coincide with various notions of widths of links with respect to the standard Morse function. Our formulations are…
We show that multivariable colored link invariants are derived from the roots of unity representations of $U_q(g)$. We propose a property of the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients of $U_q(g)$, which is important for defining the invariants of…
We extend the Gordon-Litherland pairing to links in thickened surfaces, and use it to define signature, determinant, and nullity invariants for links that bound (unoriented) spanning surfaces. The invariants are seen to depend only on the…
We introduce and investigate oriented dichromatic singular links. We also introduce oriented disingquandles and use them to define counting invariants for oriented dichromatic singular links. We provide some examples to show that these…
Twisted links are a generalization of classical links and correspond to stably equivalence classes of links in thickened surfaces. In this paper we introduce twisted intersection colorings of a diagram and construct two invariants of a…
Let G be a simple complex algebraic group. By using a notion of a G-category we define invariants of tangles with flat G-connections in their complements. We also show that quantized universal enveloping algebras at roots of unity provide…
Laplacian matrices of weighted graphs in surfaces $S$ are used to define module and polynomial invariants of $Z/2$-homologically trivial links in $S \times [0,1]$. Information about virtual genus is obtained.
A colored link, as defined by Francesca Aicardi, is an oriented classical link together with a coloration, which is a function defined on the set of link components and whose image is a finite set of colors. An oriented classical link can…
New invariants of links are constructed using the skein invariant polynomial of colored links defined by the author in [1]. These invariants are stronger than the homflypt polynomial.
Coloring numbers are one of the simplest combinatorial invariants of knots and links to describe. And with Joyce's introduction of quandles, we can understand them more algebraically. But can we extend these invariants to tangles -- knots…
