Kvantne vozelne invariante : delo diplomskega seminarja

Grlj, Jernej (author), Strle, Sašo (mentor)

V tem delu bomo definirali pentljaste Hopfove algebre in $rv$-vozle. S pomočjo le teh bomo vpeljali kvantne vozlene invariante in s pomočjo kvantne \(\mathfrak{sl}_2\) izračunali Jonesov polinom deteljice. Ta formulacija kvantnih vozelnih invariant sledi pristopu R. v.d. Veena [Introduction to quantum invariants of knots] in D. Bar-Natana [Universal tangle invariants and docile perturbed Gaussians].

Abstract

In this thesis, we are going to define ribbon Hopf algebras and $rv$-knots. Building on these definitions, we are going to introduce quantum knot invariants. In the end, we are going to compute the Jones polynomial of the trefoil with the help of quantum $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. This formulation of quantum invariants follows that of R. van der Veen [Introduction to quantum invariants of knots] and D. Bar-Natana [Universal tangle invariants and docile perturbed Gaussians].
