Surgery Presentations of Coloured Knots and of Their Covering Links
We consider knots equipped with a representation of their knot groups onto a dihedral group D2n (where n is odd). To each such knot there corresponds a closed 3–manifold, the (irregular) dihedral branched covering space, with the branching set over the knot forming a link in it. We report a variety of results relating to the problem of passing from the initial data of a D2n-coloured knot to a s...
متن کاملStrongly n-trivial Knots
We prove that given any knot k of genus g, k fails to be strongly n-trivial for all n, n ≥ 3g − 1.
متن کاملFramed Knots at Large N
We study the framing dependence of the Wilson loop observable of U(N) ChernSimons gauge theory at large N . Using proposed geometrical large N dual, this leads to a direct computation of certain topological string amplitudes in a closed form. This yields new formulae for intersection numbers of cohomology classes on moduli of Riemann surfaces with punctures (including all the amplitudes of pure...
متن کاملKnots , Links and Branes at Large N
We consider Wilson loop observables for Chern-Simons theory at large N and its topological string dual and extend the previous checks for this duality to the case of links. We find an interesting structure involving representation/spin degeneracy of branes ending on branes which features in the large N dual description of Chern-Simons theory. This leads to a refinement of the integer invariants...
متن کاملRefined large N duality for torus knots
We formulate large N duality of U(N) refined Chern-Simons theory with a torus knot/link in S3. By studying refined BPS states in M-theory, we provide the explicit form of low-energy effective actions of Type IIA string theory with D4-branes on the Ω-background. This form enables us to relate refined Chern-Simons invariants of a torus knot/link in S3 to refined BPS invariants in the resolved con...
