Tóm tắt

We conjecture a closed form expression for the simplest class of multiplicity-free quantum 6j-symbols for $${U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_N)}$$ . The expression is a natural generalization of the quantum 6j-symbols for $${U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)}$$ obtained by Kirillov and Reshetikhin. Our conjectured form enables computation of colored HOMFLY polynomials for various knots and links carrying arbitrary symmetric representations.
