A conjecture on Khovanov's invariants

Stavros Garoufalidis (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We formulate a conjectural formula for Khovanov's invariants of alternating knots in terms of the Jones polynomial and the signature of the knot.

Virtual knot theory-unsolved problems

Roger Fenn, Louis H. Kauffman, Vassily O. Manturov (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

The present paper gives a quick survey of virtual and classical knot theory and presents a list of unsolved problems about virtual knots and links. These are all problems in low-dimensional topology with a special emphasis on virtual knots. In particular, we touch new approaches to knot invariants such as biquandles and Khovanov homology theory. Connections to other geometrical and combinatorial aspects are also discussed.
