Quasipositivity and new knot invariants.

Lee Rudolph (1989)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Similarity:

This is a survey (including new results) of relations ?some emergent, others established? among three notions which the 1980s saw introduced into knot theory: quasipositivity of a link, the enhanced Milnor number of a fibered link, and the new link polynomials. The Seifert form fails to determine these invariants; perhaps there exists an ?enhanced Seifert form? which does.
