This script calculates signature functions for knots (cable sums). This script calculates signature functions for knots (cable sums).
The script can be run as a sage script from the terminal or used in interactive mode. The script can be run as a sage script from the terminal or used in interactive mode.
A knot (cable sum) is encoded as a list where each element (also a list) corresponds to a cable knot. A knot (cable sum) is encoded as a list where each element (also a list) corresponds to a cable knot.
To calculate the number of characters for which signature function vanish use the function eval_cable_for_thetas as shown below.
sage: eval_cable_for_thetas([[1, 3], [2], [-1, -2], [-3]])
T(2, 3; 2, 7) # T(2, 5) # -T(2, 3; 2, 5) # -T(2, 7)
Zero cases: 1
All cases: 1225
Zero theta combinations:
(0, 0, 0, 0)
sage:
The numbers given to the function eval_cable_for_thetas are k-values for each
component/cable in a direct sum.
To calculate signature function for a knot and a theta value, use function
get_function_of_theta_for_sum as follow:
sage: signature_function_generator = get_function_of_theta_for_sum([1, 3], [2], [-1, -2], [-3])
sage: sf = signature_function_generator(2, 1, 2, 2)
sage: print sf
