Gradation of Algebras of Curves by the Winding Number
arXiv:1712.00691
Abstract
We construct a new grading on the Goldman Lie algebra of a closed oriented surface by the winding number. This grading induces a grading on the HOMFLY-PT skein algebra and related algebras. Our work supports the conjectures of B. Cooper and P. Samuelson
