On the universal sl2 invariant of boundary bottom tangles
نویسندگان
چکیده
The universal sl2 invariant of bottom tangles has a universality property for the colored Jones polynomial of links. Habiro conjectured that the universal sl2 invariant of boundary bottom tangles takes values in certain subalgebras of the completed tensor powers of the quantized enveloping algebra Uh(sl2) of the Lie algebra sl2. In the present paper, we prove an improved version of Habiro’s conjecture. As an application, we prove a divisibility property of the colored Jones polynomial of boundary links.

On the universal sl2 invariant of ribbon bottom tangles
A bottom tangle is a tangle in a cube consisting of arc components whose boundary points are on a line in the bottom square of the cube. A ribbon bottom tangle is a bottom tangle whose closure is a ribbon link. For every n-component ribbon bottom tangle T , we prove that the universal invariant JT of T associated to the quantized enveloping algebra Uh(sl2) of the Lie algebra sl2 is contained in...

متن کاملBottom tangles and universal invariants
A bottom tangle is a tangle in a cube consisting only of arc components, each of which has the two endpoints on the bottom line of the cube, placed next to each other. We introduce a subcategory B of the category of framed, oriented tangles, which acts on the set of bottom tangles. We give a finite set of generators of B , which provides an especially convenient way to generate all the bottom t...
متن کاملOn the quantum sl2 invariants of knots and integral homology spheres
We will announce some results on the values of quantum sl2 invariants of knots and integral homology spheres. Lawrence’s universal sl2 invariant of knots takes values in a fairly small subalgebra of the center of the h-adic version of the quantized enveloping algebra of sl2 . This implies an integrality result on the colored Jones polynomials of a knot. We define an invariant of integral homolo...
متن کاملA Reappearence of Wheels
Recently, a number of authors [KS, Oh2, Ro] have independently shown that the universal finite type invariant of rational homology 3-spheres on the level of sl2 can be recovered from the Reshetikhin-Turaev sl2 invariant. An important role in Ohtsuki’s proof [Oh3] plays a map j1 (which joins the legs of 2-legged chinese characters) and its relation to a map α in terms of a power series (on the l...
