A Formula for the HOMFLY Polynomial of rational links
Tóm tắt
We give an explicit formula for the HOMFLY polynomial of a rational link (in particular, knot) in terms of a special continued fraction for the rational number that defines the given link [after this work was accomplished, the authors learned about a paper by Nakabo (J. Knot Theory Ramif 11(4):565–574, 2002) where a similar result was proved. However, Nakabo’s formula is different from ours, and his proof is longer and less clear].
