Presents the application of graph theory to knot theory. This book evaluates the braid index for many knots and links using the generalized Jones polynomial and the index of a graph, a fresh invariant introduced here. It is of interest to computer scientists.
This book presents a remarkable application of graph theory to knot theory. In knot theory, there are a number of easily defined geometric invariants that are extremely difficult to compute; the braid index of a knot or link is one example. The authors evaluate the braid index for many knots and links using the generalized Jones polynomial and the index of a graph, a new invariant introduced here. This invariant, which is determined algorithmically, is likely to be of particular interest to computer scientists.
