Edit T(5,2) Quick Notes

An interlaced pentagram, this is known variously as the "Cinquefoil Knot", after certain herbs and shrubs of the rose family which have 5-lobed leaves and 5-petaled flowers (see e.g. [4]), as the "Pentafoil Knot" (visit Bert Jagers' pentafoil page), as the "Double Overhand Knot", as 5_1, or finally as the torus knot T(5,2).

The above data is available with the Mathematica package KnotTheory`, as shown in the (simulated) Mathematica session below. Your input (in red) is realistic; all else should have the same content as in a real mathematica session, but with different formatting. This Mathematica session is also available (albeit only for the knot 5_2) as the notebook PolynomialInvariantsSession.nb.

[edit] Khovanov Homology

The coefficients of the monomials

t r q j

are shown, along with their alternating sums

χ

(fixed

j

, alternation over

r

). The squares with yellow highlighting are those on the "critical diagonals", where

j -2 r = s + 1

j -2 r = s -1

, where

s =

4 is the signature of T(5,2). Nonzero entries off the critical diagonals (if any exist) are highlighted in red.
