Crossing numbers of cable knots
Efstratia Kalfagianni, Rob Mcconkey
Published 2023-09-07Version 1
We use the degree of the colored Jones knot polynomials to show that the crossing number of a $(p,q)$-cable of an adequate knot with crossing number $c$ is larger than $q^2\, c$. As an application we determine the crossing number of $2$-cables of adequate knots.
