The generalized Yamada polynomials of virtual spatial graphs

Abstract: Classical knot theory can be generalized to virtual knot theory and spatial graph theory. In 2007, Fleming and Mellor combined virtual knot theory and spatial graph theory to form, combinatorially, virtual spatial graph theory. In this paper, we introduce a topological definition of virtual spatial graphs that is similar to the topological definition of a virtual link. Our main goal is to generalize the classical Yamada polynomial that is defined for a spatial graph. We define a generalized Yamada polynomial f… Show more

“…Arguably, one of the most utilized polynomials to study classical spatial graphs is the Yamada polynomial. There are three polynomials for virtual spatial graphs related to the Yamada polynomial that one can turn into graphoid invariants [8,10,20]. We will focus mainly on Fleming-Mellor's formulation R(G) and Deng-Jin-Kauffman's formulation R(G; A, x).…”

“…On the other hand, there is an upper estimate for spanR(G) from Lemma 5. Deng, Kauffman, and Jin developed a Yamada-type polynomial denoted by R(G; A, 1) for virtual spatial graphs [8]. In this section, we will use R(G; A, 1) to show that certain virtual graphoids cannot be presented as a diagram without virtual crossings.…”

“…Corresponding to marked Reidemeister moves in marked Gauss diagrams we have defined moves for marked virtual link diagrams and there is one-to-one correspondence between marked Gauss diagrams and marked virtual link diagrams under the equivalence relation generated by moves in the corresponding sets. In [17], Q. Deng, X. Jin, and L. Kauffman gave a topological interpretation of virtual spatial graph diagrams. It would be interesting to know a topological interpretation of marked virtual link diagrams.…”
