They contain the self-writhe and total linking number invariants of framed oriented links in a universal way. The relations in a natural presentation of the skein module are interpreted as monodromies in the space of immersions from circles to the 3-manifold.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2002-02-27T21:05:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57M25", "57M35" ], "keywords": [ "fundamental groups", "quantum deformations", "framed oriented links", "two-term skein modules", "total linking number invariants" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math......2293K" } } }
