Abstract

The theory of Vassiliev invariants deals with many modules of diagrams on which the algebra Lambda defined by Pierre Vogel acts. By specifying a quadratic simple Lie superalgebra, one obtains a character on Lambda. We show the coherence of these characters by building a map of graded algebras beetwen Lambda and a quotient of a ring of polynomials in three variables; all the characters induced by simple Lie superalgebras factor through this map. In particular, we show that the characters for the Lie superalgebra f(4) with dimension 40 and for sl(3) are the same. Resume: De nombreux modules de diagrammes sont utilises dans la theorie des invariants de Vassiliev. Pierre Vogel a definit une algebre Lambda qui agit sur ces espaces. Les superalgebres de Lie simples quadratiques fournissent des caracteres sur Lambda. On montre leur coherence en construisant un morphisme d'algebre graduee, entre Lambda et un quotient d'un anneau de polyneme en trois variables, qui factorise tous ces caracteres. En particulier, on montre que le caractere associe a la superalgebre de Lie f(4) de dimension 40 coincide avec celui associe a sl(3).

Hyperbolic links associated to Hamiltonian subgraphs in simple $3$-polytopes

We build a large family of hyperbolic links with an explicit decomposition of the complement into right-angled hyperbolic polytopes of finite volume. Namely, in a series of papers A.D.Mednykn and A.Yu.Vesnin introduced a construction that for a given right-angled polytope $P$ in geometry $\mathbb L^3$, $\mathbb R^3$, $\mathbb S^3$, $\mathbb L^2\times \mathbb R$, $\mathbb S^2\times \mathbb R$ and a Hamiltonian cycle, theta-subgraph or $K_4$-subgraph $Γ$ in the $1$-skeleton of $P$ builds a geometric $3$-manifold $N(P,Γ)$ with an involution $τ$ such that $N(P,Γ)/\langleτ\rangle\simeq S^3$. The brach set of the corresponding $2$-sheeted branched covering $N(P,Γ)\to S^3$ is a link $C_Γ\subset S^3$ consisting of trivially embedded circles. This construction reformulated in the language of toric topology works for such a subgraph $Γ$ in any simple $3$-polytope $P$ and gives a topological $3$-manifold $N(P,Γ)$. We give a criterion when $S^3\setminus C_Γ$ has a complete hyperbolic structure of finite volume and generalize this criterion to similar links in $3$-manifolds different from $S^3$. We prove that hyperbolic links $C_Γ$ are parametrized by nonselfcrossing Eulerian cycles, Eulerian theta-subgraphs and Eulerian $K_4$-subgraphs in hyperbolic right-angled $3$-polytopes of finite volume in $\mathbb L^3$ with $0$, $2$ or $4$ finite vertices. The complement $S^3\setminus C_Γ$ is glued of $4$, $8$ or $16$ copies of the corresponding right-angled polytope. We give a criterion when the link $C_Γ$ consists of mutually unlinked circles and prove that if such a link is nontrivial, then it contains the Borromean rings. The latter problem is motivated by the Efimov effect in quantum mechanics.

Knots and the Sierpinski Tetrahedron

In this paper we prove that there are infinitely many knots that cannot be embedded in the 1-skeletons of the finite iterations of the Sierpinski tetrahedron fractal. We do this by proving that such an embedding induces a sphere decomposition of weight at most 6. There are infinitely many knots with spherewidth greater than this.
