A Link Invariant from Quantum Dilogarithm

arXiv:q-alg/9504020 · doi:10.1142/S0217732395001526

Abstract

The link invariant, arising from the cyclic quantum dilogarithm via the particular -matrix construction, is proved to coincide with the invariant of triangulated links in introduced in R.M. Kashaev, Mod. Phys. Lett. A, Vol.9 No.40 (1994) 3757. The obtained invariant, like Alexander-Conway polynomial, vanishes on disjoint union of links. The -matrix can be considered as the cyclic analog of the universal -matrix associated with algebra.
