We characterise the cabling operations on the weight systems of finite type knot invariants. The eigenvectors and eigenvalues of this family of operations are described. The canonical deframing projection for these knot invariants is described over the cable eigenbasis. The action of immanent weight systems on general Feynman diagrams is considered, and the highest eigenvalue cabling eigenvectors are shown to be dual to the immanent weight systems. Using these results, we prove a recent conjecture of Bar-Natan and Garoufalidis on cablings of weight systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
