Finite Type Invariants for Knots

We use the Jaco-Shalen and Johannson theory of the characteristic submanifold and the Torus theorem (Gabai, Casson-Jungreis) to develop an intrinsic finite tvne theory for knots in irreducible 3-manifolds. We also establish _ __ a relation between finite type knot invariants in 3-manifolds and these in R3. existence of non-trivial finite type invariants for knots in irreducible 3-manifolds. rig...

The Space of 3-manifolds and Vassiliev Finite-type Invariants

In this paper we develop the theory of finite-type invariants for homologically nontrivial 3-manifolds . We construct an infinite-dimensional affine space with a hypersurface in it corresponding to manifolds with Morse singularities. Connected components of the complement of this hypersurface correspond to homeomorphism type of spin 3-manifolds. This suggests the natural axiomatics of Vassiliev...

On 3-manifold Invariants Arising from Finite-dimensional Hopf Algebras

We reformulate Kauffman’s method of defining invariants of 3-manifolds intrinsically in terms of right integrals on certain finite dimensional Hopf algebras and define a type of universal invariants of framed tangles and invariants of 3-manifolds.

Two constructions of weight systems for invariants of knots in non-trivial 3-manifolds

A new family of weight systems of finite type knot invariants of any positive degree in orientable 3-manifolds with non-trivial first homology group is constructed. The principal part of the Casson invariant of knots in such manifolds is split into the sum of infinitely many independent weight systems. Examples of knots separated by corresponding invariants and not separated by any other known ...
