On calculations of the twisted Alexander ideals for spatial graphs, handlebody-knots and surface-links


الملخص بالإنكليزية

There are many studies about twisted Alexander invariants for knots and links, but calculations of twisted Alexander invariants for spatial graphs, handlebody-knots, and surface-links have not been demonstrated well. In this paper, we give some remarks to calculate the twisted Alexander ideals for spatial graphs, handlebody-knots and surface-links, and observe their behaviors. For spatial graphs, we calculate the invariants of Suzukis theta-curves and show that the invariants are nontrivial for Suzukis theta-curves whose Alexander ideals are trivial. For handlebody-knots, we give a remark on abelianizations and calculate the invariant of the handlebody-knots up to six crossings. For surface-links, we correct Yoshikawas table and calculate the invariants of the surface-links in the table.
