A new two-variable generalization of the Jones polynomial

Dimos Goundaroulis, Sofia Lambropoulou

Published 2016-08-05Version 1

We present a new 2-variable generalization of the Jones polynomial that can be defined through the skein relation of the Jones polynomial. The well-definedness of this new generalization is proved algebraically. We also give a closed combinatorial formula for this new classical link invariant.
