On T(n,4) torus knots and Chebyshev polynomials

arXiv:1510.04227

Abstract

The Alexander polynomials Δ_{n,3}(t) and Δ_{n,4}(t) are presented as a sum of the Alexander polynomials Δ_{k,2}(t). These polynomials are also expressed in the form of a sum of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind. These expansions allow one to introduce the "coordinates" in corresponding bases, which are proposed to be the numerical invariants characterizing links and knots.
