Path to homology of Yang-Baxter operators

Jozef H. Przytycki

This paper is an extended version of two talks I gave during workshop ``Loops'13" in Bedlewo in June 2023. In the first talk I gave a historical introduction to Knot Theory. In the…

Kauffman bracket skein module of the connected sum of two solid tori

Rhea Palak Bakshi, Thang T. Q. Lê, Józef H. Przytycki

We determine the structure of the Kauffman bracket skein module of the connected sum of two genus one handlebodies over the ring of Laurent polynomials , ther…

In Search of Homology for Quasigroups of Bol-Moufang Type

Anthony Christiana, Ben Clingenpeel, Huizheng Guo +3

We initiate (co)homology theory for quasigroups of Bol-Moufang type based on analysis of their extensions by affine quasigroups of the same type. We use these extensions to define…

Low Dimensional Homology of the Yang-Baxter Operators Yielding the HOMFLYPT Polynomial

Anthony Christiana, Ben Clingenpeel, Huizheng Guo +4

In this paper, we analyze the homology of the Yang-Baxter Operators yielding the HOMFLYPT polynomial, reducing the computation of the -th homology of for arb…

The Montesinos-Nakanishi 3-move conjecture for links up to 20 crossings

Rhea Palak Bakshi, Benjamin A. Burton, Huizheng Guo +4

Yasutaka Nakanishi formulated the following conjecture in 1981: every link is 3-move equivalent to a trivial link. While the conjecture was proved for several specific cases, it re…

Exploring unimodality of the plucking polynomial with delay function

Dionne Ibarra, Alex Landry, Gabriel Montoya-Vega +1

The plucking polynomial is an invariant of rooted trees with connections to knot theory. The polynomial was constructed in 2014 as a tool to analyze lattice crossings after taking…
