\section{Basic definitions \hfill\DTMdate{2019-02-25}}
\begin{definition}
A knot $K$ in $S^3$ is a smooth (PL - smooth) embedding of a circle $S^1$ in $S^3$:
\begin{align*}
\varphi: S^1 \hookrightarrow S^3
\end{align*}
\end{definition}
\noindent
Usually we think about a knot as an image of an embedding: $K = \varphi(S^1)$.
\begin{example}
\begin{itemize}
\item
Knots:
\includegraphics[width=0.08\textwidth]{unknot.png} (unknot),
\includegraphics[width=0.08\textwidth]{trefoil.png} (trefoil).
\item
Not knots:
\includegraphics[width=0.12\textwidth]{not_injective_knot.png}
(it is not an injection),
\includegraphics[width=0.08\textwidth]{not_smooth_knot.png}
(it is not smooth).
\end{itemize}
\end{example}
\begin{definition}
%\hfill\\
Two knots $K_0 = \varphi_0(S^1)$, $K_1 = \varphi_1(S^1)$ are equivalent if the embeddings $\varphi_0$ and $\varphi_1$ are isotopic, that is there exists a continues function
\begin{align*}
&\Phi: S^1 \times [0, 1] \hookrightarrow S^3 \\
&\Phi(x, t) = \Phi_t(x)
\end{align*}
such that $\Phi_t$ is an embedding for any $t \in [0,1]$, $\Phi_0 = \varphi_0$ and
$\Phi_1 = \varphi_1$.
\end{definition}
\begin{theorem}
Two knots $K_0$ and $K_1$ are isotopic if and only if they are ambient isotopic, i.e. there exists a family of self-diffeomorphisms $\Psi = \{\psi_t: t \in [0, 1]\}$ such that:
\begin{align*}
&\psi(t) = \psi_t \text{ is continius on $t\in [0,1]$}\\
&\psi_t: S^3 \hookrightarrow S^3,\\
& \psi_0 = id ,\\
& \psi_1(K_0) = K_1.
\end{align*}
\end{theorem}
\begin{definition}
A knot is trivial (unknot) if it is equivalent to an embedding $\varphi(t) = (\cos t, \sin t, 0)$, where $t \in [0, 2 \pi] $ is a parametrisation of $S^1$.
\end{definition}
\begin{definition}
A link with k - components is a (smooth) embedding of $\overbrace{S^1 \sqcup \ldots \sqcup S^1}^k$ in $S^3$
\end{definition}
\begin{example}
Links:
\begin{itemize}
\item
a trivial link with $3$ components:
\includegraphics[width=0.2\textwidth]{3unknots.png},
\item
a hopf link: \includegraphics[width=0.13\textwidth]{Hopf.png},
\item
a Whitehead link:
\includegraphics[width=0.13\textwidth]{WhiteheadLink.png},
\item
Borromean link:
\includegraphics[width=0.1\textwidth]{BorromeanRings.png},
\end{itemize}
\end{example}
%
%
%
\begin{definition}
A link diagram $D_{\pi}$ is a picture over projection $\pi$ of a link $L$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$($S^3$) to $\mathbb{R}^2$ ($S^2$) such that:
\begin{enumerate}[label={(\arabic*)}]
\item
${D_{\pi}}_{\big|L}$ is non degenerate: \includegraphics[width=0.05\textwidth]{LinkDiagram1.png},
\item the double points are not degenerate: \includegraphics[width=0.03\textwidth]{LinkDiagram2.png},
\item there are no triple point: \includegraphics[width=0.05\textwidth]{LinkDiagram3.png}.
\end{enumerate}
\end{definition}
\noindent
There are under- and overcrossings (tunnels and bridges) on a link diagrams with an obvious meaning.\\
Every link admits a link diagram.
\\
Let $D$ be a diagram of an oriented link (to each component of a link we add an arrow in the diagram).\\
We can distinguish two types of crossings: right-handed
$\left(\PICorientpluscross\right)$, called a positive crossing, and left-handed $\left(\PICorientminuscross\right)$, called a negative crossing.
\subsection{Reidemeister moves}
A Reidemeister move is one of the three types of operation on a link diagram as shown below:
\begin{enumerate}[label=\Roman*]
\item\hfill\\
\includegraphics[width=0.6\textwidth]{rm1.png},
\item\hfill\\\includegraphics[width=0.6\textwidth]{rm2.png},
\item\hfill\\\includegraphics[width=0.4\textwidth]{rm3.png}.
\end{enumerate}
\begin{theorem} [Reidemeister, 1927 ]
Two diagrams of the same link can be
deformed into each other by a finite sequence of Reidemeister moves (and isotopy of the plane).

\subsection{Seifert surface}
\noindent
Let $D$ be an oriented diagram of a link $L$. We change the diagram by smoothing each crossing:
\begin{align*}
\PICorientpluscross \mapsto \PICorientLRsplit\\
\PICorientminuscross \mapsto \PICorientLRsplit
\end{align*}
We smooth all the crossings, so we get a disjoint union of circles on the plane. Each circle bounds a disks in $\mathbb{R}^3$ (we choose disks that don't intersect). For each smoothed crossing we add a twisted band: right-handed for a positive and left-handed for a negative one. We get an orientable surface $\Sigma$ such that $\partial \Sigma = L$.\\

\label{fig:SeifertAlg}
}
\end{figure}
\noindent
Note: in general the obtained surface doesn't need to be connected, but by taking connected sum of all components we can easily get a connected surface (i.e. we take two disconnected components and cut a disk in each of them: $D_1$ and $D_2$; now we glue both components on the boundaries: $\partial D_1$ and $\partial D_2$.

\begin{theorem}[Seifert]
Every link in $S^3$ bounds a surface $\Sigma$ that is compact, connected and orientable. Such a surface is called a Seifert surface.
\end{theorem}

\begin{definition}
The three genus $g_3(K)$ ($g(K)$) of a knot $K$ is the minimal genus of a Seifert surface $\Sigma$ for $K$.
\end{definition}
\begin{corollary}
A knot $K$ is trivial if and only $g_3(K) = 0$.
\end{corollary}
\noindent
Remark: there are knots that admit non isotopic Seifert surfaces of minimal genus (András Juhász, 2008).
\begin{definition}
Suppose $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are two simple closed curves in $\mathbb{R}^3$.
On a diagram $L$ consider all crossings between $\alpha$ and $\beta$. Let $N_+$ be the number of positive crossings, $N_-$ - negative. Then the linking number: $lk(\alpha, \beta) = \frac{1}{2}(N_+ - N_-)$.
\end{definition}
\hfill
\\
Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be two disjoint simple cross curves in $S^3$.
Let $\nu(\beta)$ be a tubular neighbourhood of $\beta$. The linking number can be interpreted via first homology group, where $lk(\alpha, \beta)$ is equal to evaluation of $\alpha$ as element of first homology group of the complement of $\beta$:
\[
\alpha \in H_1(S^3 \setminus \nu(\beta), \mathbb{Z}) \cong \mathbb{Z}.\]

\subsection{Seifert matrix}
Let $L$ be a link and $\Sigma$ be an oriented Seifert surface for $L$. Choose a basis for $H_1(\Sigma, \mathbb{Z})$ consisting of simple closed $\alpha_1, \dots, \alpha_n$.
Let $\alpha_1^+, \dots \alpha_n^+$ be copies of $\alpha_i$ lifted up off the surface (push up along a vector field normal to $\Sigma$). Note that elements $\alpha_i$ are contained in the Seifert surface while all $\alpha_i^+$ are don't intersect the surface.
Let $lk(\alpha_i, \alpha_j^+) = \{a_{ij}\}$. Then the matrix $S = \{a_{ij}\}_{i, j =1}^n$ is called a Seifert matrix for $L$. Note that by choosing a different basis we get a different matrix.

\begin{theorem}
The Seifert matrices $S_1$ and $S_2$ for the same link $L$ are S-equivalent, that is, $S_2$ can be obtained from $S_1$ by a sequence of following moves:
\begin{enumerate}[label={(\arabic*)}]

\begin{theorem}
For any knot $K \subset S^3$ there exists a connected, compact and orientable surface $\Sigma(K)$ such that $\partial \Sigma(K) = K$
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}("joke")\\
Let $K \in S^3$ be a knot and $N = \nu(K)$ be its tubular neighbourhood. Because $K$ and $N$ are homotopy equivalent, we get:
\begin{align*}
H^1(S^3 \setminus N ) \cong H^1(S^3 \setminus K).
\end{align*}
Let us consider a long exact sequence of cohomology of a pair $(S^3, S^3 \setminus N)$ with integer coefficients:

\end{tikzcd}
\end{center}
\[
H^* (S^3, S^3 \setminus N) \cong H^* (N, \partial N)
\]
\\
??????????????
\\
\end{proof}
\begin{definition}
Let $S$ be a Seifert matrix for a knot $K$. The Alexander polynomial $\Delta_K(t)$ is a Laurent polynomial:
\[
\Delta_K(t) := \det (tS - S^T) \in
\mathbb{Z}[t, t^{-1}] \cong \mathbb{Z}[\mathbb{Z}]
\]
\end{definition}
\begin{theorem}
$\Delta_K(t)$ is well defined up to multiplication by $\pm t^k$, for $k \in \mathbb{Z}$.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
We need to show that $\Delta_K(t)$ doesn't depend on $S$-equivalence relation.
\begin{enumerate}[label={(\arabic*)}]
\item Suppose $S\prime = CSC^T$, $C \in \Gl(n, \mathbb{Z})$ (matrices invertible over $\mathbb{Z}$). Then $\det C = 1$ and:
\begin{align*}
&\det(tS\prime - S\prime^T) =
\det(tCSC^T - (CSC^T)^T) =\\
&\det(tCSC^T - CS^TC^T) =
\det C(tS - S^T)C^T =
\det(tS - S^T)
\end{align*}
\item
Let \\
$ A := t
\begin{pmatrix}
\begin{array}{c|c}
S &
\begin{matrix}
\ast & 0 \\
\sdots & \sdots\\
\ast & 0
\end{matrix} \\
\hline
\begin{matrix}
\ast & \dots & \ast\\
0 & \dots & 0
\end{matrix}
&
\begin{matrix}
0 & 0\\
1 & 0
\end{matrix}
\end{array}
\end{pmatrix}
-
\begin{pmatrix}
\begin{array}{c|c}
S^T &
\begin{matrix}
\ast & 0 \\
\sdots & \sdots\\
\ast & 0
\end{matrix} \\
\hline
\begin{matrix}
\ast & \dots & \ast\\
0 & \dots & 0
\end{matrix}
&
\begin{matrix}
0 & 1\\
0 & 0
\end{matrix}
\end{array}
\end{pmatrix}
=
\begin{pmatrix}
\begin{array}{c|c}
tS - S^T &
\begin{matrix}
\ast & 0 \\
\sdots & \sdots\\
\ast & 0
\end{matrix} \\
\hline
\begin{matrix}
\ast & \dots & \ast\\
0 & \dots & 0
\end{matrix}
&
\begin{matrix}
0 & -1\\
t & 0
\end{matrix}
\end{array}
\end{pmatrix}
$
\\
\\
Using the Laplace expansion we get $\det A = \pm t \det(tS - S^T)$.
\end{enumerate}
\end{proof}
%
%
%
\begin{example}
If $K$ is a trefoil then we can take
$S = \begin{pmatrix}
-1 & -1 \\
0 & -1
\end{pmatrix}$.
\[
\Delta_K(t) = \det
\begin{pmatrix}
-t + 1 & -t\\
1 & -t +1
\end{pmatrix}
= (t -1)^2 + t = t^2 - t +1 \ne 1
\Rightarrow \text{trefoil is not trivial}
\]
\end{example}
\begin{fact}
$\Delta_K(t)$ is symmetric.
\end{fact}
\begin{proof}
Let $S$ be an $n \times n$ matrix.
\begin{align*}
&\Delta_K(t^{-1}) = \det (t^{-1}S - S^T) = (-t)^{-n} \det(tS^T - S) = \\
&(-t)^{-n} \det (tS - S^T) = (-t)^{-n} \Delta_K(t)
\end{align*}
If $K$ is a knot, then $n$ is necessarily even, and so $\Delta_K(t^{-1}) = t^{-n} \Delta_K(t)$.
\end{proof}
\begin{lemma}
\begin{align*}
\frac{1}{2} \deg \Delta_K(t) \leq g_3(K),
\text{ where } deg (a_n t^n + \cdots + a_1 t^l )= k - l.
\end{align*}
\end{lemma}
\begin{proof}
If $\Sigma$ is a genus $g$ - Seifert surface for $K$ then $H_1(\Sigma) = \mathbb{Z}^{2g}$, so $S$ is an $2g \times 2g$ matrix. Therefore $\det (tS - S^T)$ is a polynomial of degree at most $2g$.
\end{proof}
\begin{example}
There are not trivial knots with Alexander polynomial equal $1$, for example:
$\Delta_{11n34} \equiv 1$.
\end{example}
%removing one disk from surface doesn't change $H_1$ (only $H_2$)

A knot $K$ is smoothly slice if and only if $K$ bounds a smoothly embedded disk in $B^4$.

\begin{definition}
Two knots $K$ and $K^{\prime}$ are called (smoothly) concordant if there exists an annulus $A$ that is smoothly embedded in $S^3 \times [0, 1]$ such that

\begin{fact}
If $K_1 \sim {K_1}^{\prime}$ and $K_2 \sim {K_2}^{\prime}$, then
$K_1 \# K_2 \sim {K_1}^{\prime} \# {K_2}^{\prime}$.

$K \# m(K) \sim $ the unknot.

Let $\mathscr{C}$ denote all equivalent classes for knots. $\mathscr{C}$ is a group under taking connected sums, with neutral element (the class defined by) an unknot and inverse element (a class defined by) a mirror image.\\
The figure eight knot is a torsion element in $\mathscr{C}$ ($2K \sim $ the unknot).\\
\begin{example}[Problem]
Are there in concordance group torsion elements that are not $2$ torsion elements? (open)
\end{example}

Remark: $K \sim K^{\prime} \Leftrightarrow K \# -K^{\prime}$ is slice.

$X$ is a closed orientable four-manifold. Assume $\pi_1(X) = 0$ (it is not needed to define the intersection form). In particular $H_1(X) = 0$.

Let us consider a specific case: $M$ has a boundary $Y = \partial M$.
\\??????\\
Betti number $b_1(Y) = 0$, $H_1(Y, \mathbb{Z})$ is finite. \\
Then: $H_2(M, \mathbb{Z})
\times H_2(M, \mathbb{Z})
\longrightarrow
\mathbb{Z}$ can be degenerate in the sense that
\begin{align*}
H_2(M, \mathbb{Z}) \longrightarrow \Hom (H_2(M, \mathbb{Z}), \mathbb{Z})\\
(a, b) \mapsto \mathbb{Z}\\
a \mapsto (a, \_) H_2(M, \mathbb{Z})
\end{align*}
has coker precisely $H_1(Y, \mathbb{Z})$.

Let $K \subset S^3$ be a knot, \\
$X = S^3 \setminus K$ - a knot complement, \\
$\widetilde{X} \xrightarrow{\enspace \rho \enspace} X$ - an infinite cyclic cover (universal abelian cover).
\begin{align*}
\pi_1(X) \longrightarrow \quot{\pi_1(X)}{[\pi_1(X), \pi_1(X)]} = H_1(X, \mathbb{Z} ) \cong \mathbb{Z}
\end{align*}
$C_{*}(\widetilde{X})$ has a structure of a $\mathbb{Z}[t, t^{-1}] \cong \mathbb{Z}[\mathbb{Z}]$ module. \\
$H_1(\widetilde{X}, \mathbb{Z}[t, t^{-1}])$ - Alexander module, \\
\begin{align*}
H_1(\widetilde{X}, \mathbb{Z}[t, t^{-1}]) \times
H_1(\widetilde{X}, \mathbb{Z}[t, t^{-1}]) \longrightarrow \quot{\mathbb{Q}}{\mathbb{Z}[t, t^{-1}]}

\begin{fact}
\begin{align*}

Note that $\mathbb{Z}$ is not PID. Therefore we don't have primer decomposition of this moduli. We can simplify this problem by replacing $\mathbb{Z}$ by $\mathbb{R}$. We lose some date by doing this transition.

Let $p = p_{\xi}$, $k\geq 0$.
\begin{align*}
\quot{\Lambda}{p^k \Lambda} \times
\quot{\Lambda}{p^k \Lambda} &\longrightarrow \quot{\mathbb{Q}(t)}{\Lambda}\\
(1, 1) &\mapsto \kappa\\
\text{Now: } (p^k \cdot 1, 1) &\mapsto 0\\
p^k \kappa = 0 &\in \quot{\mathbb{Q}(t)}{\Lambda}\\
\text{therfore } p^k \kappa &\in \Lambda\\
\text{we have } (1, 1) &\mapsto \frac{h}{p^k}\\
\end{align*}
$h$ is not uniquely defined: $h \rightarrow h + g p^k$ doesn't affect paring. \\
Let $h = p^k \kappa$.
\begin{example}
\begin{align*}
\phi_0 ((1, 1))=\frac{+1}{p}\\
\phi_1 ((1, 1)) = \frac{-1}{p}
\end{align*}
$\phi_0$ and $\phi_1$ are not isomorphic.
\end{example}
\begin{proof}
Let $\Phi:
\quot{\Lambda}{p^k \Lambda} \longrightarrow
\quot{\Lambda}{p^k \Lambda}$
be an isomorphism. \\
Let: $\Phi(1) = g \in \lambda$
\begin{align*}
\quot{\Lambda}{p^k \Lambda}
\xrightarrow{\enspace \Phi \enspace}&
\quot{\Lambda}{p^k \Lambda}\\
\phi_0((1, 1)) = \frac{1}{p^k} \qquad&\qquad
\phi_1((g, g)) = \frac{1}{p^k} \quad \text{($\Phi$ is an isometry).}
\end{align*}
Suppose for the paring $\phi_1((g, g))=\frac{1}{p^k}$ we have $\phi_1((1, 1)) = \frac{-1}{p^k}$. Then:
\begin{align*}
\frac{-g\overbar{g}}{p^k} = \frac{1}{p^k} &\in \quot{\mathbb{Q}(t)}{\Lambda}\\
\frac{-g\overbar{g}}{p^k} - \frac{1}{p^k} &\in \Lambda \\
-g\overbar{g} &\equiv 1\pmod{p} \text{ in } \Lambda\\
-g\overbar{g} - 1 &= p^k \omega \text{ for some } \omega \in \Lambda\\
\text{evalueting at $\xi$: }\\
\overbrace{-g(\xi)g(\xi^{-1})}^{>0} - 1 = 0 \quad \contradiction
\end{align*}
\end{proof}
????????????????????\\
\begin{align*}
g &= \sum{g_i t^i}\\
\overbar{g} &= \sum{g_i t^{-i}}\\
\overbar{g}(\xi) &= \sum g_i \xi^i \quad \xi \in S^1\\
\overbar{g}(\xi) &=\overbar{g(\xi)}
\end{align*}
Suppose $g = (t - \xi)^{\alpha} g^{\prime}$. Then $(t - \xi)^{k - \alpha}$ goes to $0$ in $\quot{\Lambda}{p^k \Lambda}$.
\begin{theorem}
Every sesquilinear non-degenerate pairing
\begin{align*}
\quot{\Lambda}{p^k} \times \quot{\Lambda}{p}
\longleftrightarrow \frac{h}{p^k}
\end{align*}
is isomorphic either to the pairing wit $h=1$ or to the paring with $h=-1$ depending on sign of $h(\xi)$ (which is a real number).
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
There are two steps of the proof:
\begin{enumerate}
\item
Reduce to the case when $h$ has a constant sign on $S^1$.
\item
Prove in the case, when $h$ has a constant sign on $S^1$.
\end{enumerate}
\begin{lemma}
If $p$ is a symmetric polynomial such that$p(\eta)\geq 0$ for all $\eta \in S^1$, then $p$ can be written as a product $p = g \overbar{g}$ for some polynomial $g$.
\end{lemma}
\begin{proof}[Sketch of proof]
Induction over $\deg p$.\\
Let $\zeta \notin S^1$ be a root of $p$, $p \in \mathbb{R}[t, t^{-1}]$. Assume $\zeta \notin \mathbb{R}$. We know that
\begin{align*}
(t - \zeta) \mid p,\\
(t - \overbar{\zeta}) \mid p,\\
(t^{-1} - \zeta) \mid p,\\
(t^{-1} - \overbar{\zeta}) \mid p,\\
\end{align*}
therefore:
\begin{align*}
p^{\prime} = \frac{p}{(t - \zeta)(t - \overbar{\zeta})(t^{-1} - \zeta)(t^{-1} - \overbar{\zeta})}\\
p^{\prime} = g^{\prime}\overbar{g}\\
\text{we set } g = g^{\prime}(t - \zeta)(t - \overbar{\zeta}\\
p = g \overbar{g}
\end{align*}
Suppose $\zeta \in S^1$. Then $(t - \zeta)^2 \mid p$ (at least - otherwise it would change sign).
\begin{align*}
p^{\prime} &= \frac{p}{(t - \zeta)^2(t^{-1} - \zeta)^2}\\
g &= (t - \zeta)(t^{-1} - \zeta) g^{\prime} \quad \text{etc.}\\
(1, 1) \mapsto \frac{h}{p^k} = \frac{g\overbar{g}h}{p^k} \quad \text{ isometry whenever $g$ is coprime with $p$.}
\end{align*}
\end{proof}
\begin{lemma}\label{L:coprime polynomials}
Suppose $A$ and $B$ are two symmetric polynomials that are coprime and that $\forall z \in S^1$ either $A(z) > 0$ or $B(z) > 0$. Then there exist
symmetric polynomials $P$, $Q$ such that
$P(z), Q(z) > 0$ for $z \in S^1$ and $PA + QB \equiv 1$.
\end{lemma}
\begin{proof}[Idea of proof]
For any $z$ find an interval $(a_z, b_z)$ such that if $P(z) \in (a_z, b_z)$ and $P(z)A(z) + Q(z)B(z) = 1$, then $Q(z) > 0$, $x(z) = \frac{az + bz}{i}$ is a continues function on $S^1$ approximating $z$ by a polynomial .
\\??????????????????????????\\
\begin{align*}
(1, 1) \mapsto \frac{h}{p^k} \mapsto \frac{g\overbar{g}h}{p^k}\\
g\overbar{g} h + p^k\omega = 1
\end{align*}
Apply Lemma \ref{L:coprime polynomials} for $A=h$, $B=p^{2k}$. Then, if the assumptions are satisfied,
\begin{align*}
Ph + Qp^{2k} = 1\\
p>0 \Rightarrow p = g \overbar{g}\\
p = (t - \xi)(t - \overbar{\xi})t^{-1}\\
\text{so } p \geq 0 \text{ on } S^1\\
p(t) = 0 \Leftrightarrow
t = \xi or t = \overbar{\xi}\\
h(\xi) > 0\\
h(\overbar{\xi})>0\\
g\overbar{g}h + Qp^{2k} = 1\\
g\overbar{g}h \equiv 1 \mod{p^{2k}}\\
g\overbar{g} \equiv 1 \mod{p^k}
\end{align*}
???????????????????????????????\\
If $P$ has no roots on $S^1$ then $B(z) > 0$ for all $z$, so the assumptions of Lemma \ref{L:coprime polynomials} are satisfied no matter what $A$ is.
\end{proof}
?????????????????\\
\begin{align*}
(\quot{\Lambda}{p_{\xi}^k} \times
\quot{\Lambda}{p_{\xi}^k}) &\longrightarrow
\frac{\epsilon}{p_{\xi}^k}, \quad \xi \in S^1 \setminus\{\pm 1\}\\
(\quot{\Lambda}{q_{\xi}^k} \times
\quot{\Lambda}{q_{\xi}^k}) &\longrightarrow
\frac{1}{q_{\xi}^k}, \quad \xi \notin S^1\\
\end{align*}
??????????????????? 1 ?? epsilon?\\
\begin{theorem}(Matumoto, Conway-Borodzik-Politarczyk)
Let $K$ be a knot,
\begin{align*}
H_1(\widetilde{X}, \Lambda) \times
H_1(\widetilde{X}, \Lambda)
= \bigoplus_{\substack{k, \xi, \epsilon\\ \xi in S^1}}
(\quot{\Lambda}{p_{\xi}^k}, \epsilon)^{n_k, \xi, \epsilon} \oplus \bigoplus_{k, \eta}
(\quot{\Lambda}{p_{\xi}^k})^{m_k}
\end{align*}
\begin{align*}
\text{Let } \delta_{\sigma}(\xi) = \lim_{\varepsilon \rightarrow 0^{+}}
\sigma(e^{2\pi i \varepsilon} \xi)
- \sigma(e^{-2\pi i \varepsilon} \xi),\\
\text{then }
\sigma_j(\xi) = \sigma(\xi) - \frac{1}{2} \lim_{\varepsilon \rightarrow 0}
\sigma(e^{2\pi i \varepsilon}\xi)
+ \sigma(e^{-2 \pi i \varepsilon}\xi)
\end{align*}
The jump at $\xi$ is equal to
$2 \sum\limits_{k_i \text{ odd}} \epsilon_i$. The peak of the signature function is equal to $\sum\limits_{k_i \text{even}} \epsilon_i$.
%$(\eta_{k, \xi_l^{+}} -\eta_{k, \xi_l^{-}}$
