A formula for the Jones polynomial of pretzel knots and links is constructed using Kauffman's state model of the Jones polynomial. A computer program in Maple, which is given for calculations of these polynomials is also used to show that an infinite class of pretzel knots with trivial Alexander pol

In this survey, we present some recent results about Dehn surgeries on arborescent knots and links. Arborescent links are also known as algebraic links [l, 21 and star links [3]. The set of arborescent knots and links is a large class, including all 2-bridge links and Montesinos links. They have bee

In our previous work oriented quantum algebras were motivated and introduced in a very natural categorical setting within the context of knots and links, some examples were discussed, and a rudimentary theory of oriented quantum algebras was sketched. Invariants of knots and links can be computed fr

For a graph G, let Ξ“ be either the set Ξ“ 1 of cycles of G or the set Ξ“ 2 of pairs of disjoint cycles of G. Suppose that for each Ξ³ ∈ Ξ“ , an embedding In this paper, we have the following three results: (1) For the complete graph K 5 on 5 vertices and the complete bipartite graph K 3,3 on 3 + 3 ver
