{"title":"Electric group for knots and links","authors":"Philipp Korablev","doi":"arxiv-2408.04510","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/arxiv-2408.04510","url":null,"abstract":"In 2014 Andrey Perfiliev introduced the so-called electric invariant for\u0000non-oriented knots. This invariant was motivated by using Kirchhoff's laws for\u0000the dual graph of the knot diagram. Later, in 2020, Anastasiya Galkina\u0000generalised this invariant and defined the electric group for non-oriented\u0000knots. Both works were never written and published. In the present paper we\u0000describe a simple and general approach to the electric group for oriented knots\u0000and links. Each homomorphism from the electric group to an arbitrary finite\u0000group can be described by a proper colouring of the diagram. This colouring\u0000assigns an element of the group to each crossing of the diagram, and the proper\u0000conditions correspond to the areas of the diagram. In the second part of the\u0000paper we introduce tensor network invariants for coloured links. The idea of\u0000these invariants is very close to quantum invariants for classical links.","PeriodicalId":501271,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - MATH - Geometric Topology","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141942486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
