We develop the local theory of the generalized doubling method for the $m$-fold central extension $Sp_{2n}^{(m)}$ of Matsumoto of the symplectic group. We define local $\gamma$-, $L$- and $\epsilon$-factors for pairs of genuine…

It is conjectured that for each knot $K$ in $S^3$, the fundamental group of its complement surjects onto only finitely many distinct knot groups. Applying character variety theory we obtain an affirmative solution of the conjecture for a…

We provide a new branching rule from the general linear group $GL_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$ to the symplectic group $Sp_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$ by establishing a simple algorithm which gives rise to a bijection from the set of semistandard tableaux of a…

A quandle is an algebraic structure whose axioms are related to the Reidemeister moves used in knot theory. In this paper, we investigate the conjugate quandle of the orientation-preserving isometry group $\mathrm{PSL}(2, \mathbb{C})$ of…

We define a family of quiver representation-valued invariants of oriented classical and virtual knots and links associated to a choice of finite quandle $X$, abelian group $A$, set of quandle 2-cocycles $C\subset H^2_Q(x;A)$, choice of…

We study the twisted Alexander polynomial from the viewpoint of the SL(2,C)-character variety of nonabelian representations of a knot group. It is known that if a knot is fibered, then the twisted Alexander polynomials associated with…

For each even classical pretzel knot $P(2k_1+1,2k_2+1,2k_3)$, we determine the character variety of irreducible ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$-representations, and clarify the steps of computing its A-polynomial.

We give a new characterization of symplectic surfaces in CP^2 via bridge trisections. Specifically, a minimal genus surface in CP^2 is smoothly isotopic to a symplectic surface if and only if it is smoothly isotopic to a surface in…

We call a knot in the 3-sphere $SU(2)$-simple if all representations of the fundamental group of its complement which map a meridian to a trace-free element in $SU(2)$ are binary dihedral. This is a generalisation of being a 2-bridge knot.…

We extend some part of the unpublished paper written by Mednykh and Rasskazov. Using the approach indicated in this paper we derive the Riley-Mednykh polynomial for some family of the $2$-bridge knot orbifolds. As a result we obtain…

In this paper, I give a method to calculate the HOMFLY polynomials of knots by using a representation of the braid group B4 into a group of 3 ? 3 matrices. Also, I will give examples of a 2-bridge knot and a 3-bridge knot that have the same…

We study the twisted knot module for the universal deformation of an ${\rm SL}_2$-representation of a knot group, and introduce an associated $L$-function, which may be seen as an analogue of the algebraic $p$-adic $L$-function associated…

The multidimensional quantization procedure, proposed by the first author and its modifications (reduction to radicals and lifting on U(1)-coverings) give us a almost universal theoretical tools to find irreducible representations of Lie…

A formula for the Alexander polynomial of a 2-bridge knot or link given by Hartley and also by Minkus has a beautiful interpretation as a walk on the integers. We extend this to the 2-variable Alexander polynomial of a 2-bridge link,…

Experimental data from Dunfield et al using random grid diagrams suggests that the genus of a knot grows linearly with respect to the crossing number. Using billiard table diagrams of Chebyshev knots developed by Koseleff and Pecker and a…

The symplectic group branching algebra, B, is a graded algebra whose components encode the multiplicities of irreducible representations of Sp(2n-2,C) in each irreducible representation of Sp(2n,C). By describing on B an ASL structure, we…

A knot in the 3-sphere in genus-1 1-bridge position (called a (1,1)-position) can be described by an element of the braid group of two points in the torus. Our main results tell how to translate between a braid group element and the…

Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group with finite component group, and let $K<G$ be a maximal compact subgroup. We obtain a quantisation commutes with reduction result for actions by $G$ on manifolds of the form $M = G\times_K N$, where $N$ is…

Cohen, Lowrance, Madras, and Raanes computed the average (absolute value of) signature over all 2-bridge knots with crossing number $c$ by introducing the number $s(c,\sigma)$ of 2-bridge knots of crossing number $c$ and signature $\sigma$.…

We use binary trees to study the Bratteli diagram of Sylow 2-subgroups of symmetric groups. We show that it is simple, has a recursive structure, and self-similarities at all scales. We contrast its subgraph of one-dimensional…
