Let $k$ be a subring of the field of rational functions in $x, v, s$ which contains $x^{pm 1}, v^{pm 1}, s^{pm 1}$. If $M$ is an oriented 3-manifold, let $S(M)$ denote the Homflypt skein module of $M$ over $k$. This is the free $k$-module generated by isotopy classes of framed oriented links in $M$ quotiented by the Homflypt skein relations: (1) $x^{-1}L_{+}-xL_{-}=(s-s^{-1})L_{0}$; (2) $L$ with a positive twist $=(xv^{-1})L$; (3) $Lsqcup O=(frac{v-v^{-1}}{s-s^{-1}})L$ where $O$ is the unknot. We give two bases for the relative Homflypt skein module of the solid torus with 2 points in the boundary. The first basis is related to the basis of $S(S^1times D^2)$ given by V. Turaev and also J. Hoste and M. Kidwell; the second basis is related to a Young idempotent basis for $S(S^1times D^2)$ based on the work of A. Aiston, H. Morton and C. Blanchet. We prove that if the elements $s^{2n}-1$, for $n$ a nonzero integer, and the elements $s^{2m}-v^{2}$, for any integer $m$, are invertible in $k$, then $S(S^{1} times S^2)=k$-torsion module $oplus k$. Here the free part is generated by the empty link $phi$. In addition, if the elements $s^{2m}-v^{4}$, for $m$ an integer, are invertible in $k$, then $S(S^{1} times S^2)$ has no torsion. We also obtain some results for more general $k$.

Morrison, Walker, and Wedrich used the blob complex to construct a generalization of Khovanov-Rozansky homology to links in the boundary of a 4-manifold. The degree zero part of their theory, called the skein lasagna module, admits an elementary defi nition in terms of certain diagrams in the 4-manifold. We give a description of the skein lasagna module for 4-manifolds without 1- and 3-handles, and present some explicit calculations for disk bundles over $S^2$.
Let $M_n$ be the connect sum of $n$ copies of $S^2 times S^1$. A classical theorem of Laudenbach says that the mapping class group $text{Mod}(M_n)$ is an extension of $text{Out}(F_n)$ by a group $(mathbb{Z}/2)^n$ generated by sphere twists. We prove that this extension splits, so $text{Mod}(M_n)$ is the semidirect product of $text{Out}(F_n)$ by $(mathbb{Z}/2)^n$, which $text{Out}(F_n)$ acts on via the dual of the natural surjection $text{Out}(F_n) rightarrow text{GL}_n(mathbb{Z}/2)$. Our splitting takes $text{Out}(F_n)$ to the subgroup of $text{Mod}(M_n)$ consisting of mapping classes that fix the homotopy class of a trivialization of the tangent bundle of $M_n$. Our techniques also simplify various aspects of Laudenbachs original proof, including the identification of the twist subgroup with $(mathbb{Z}/2)^n$.
We establish a number of results about smooth and topological concordance of knots in $S^1times S^2$. The winding number of a knot in $S^1times S^2$ is defined to be its class in $H_1(S^1times S^2;mathbb{Z})cong mathbb{Z}$. We show that there is a un ique smooth concordance class of knots with winding number one. This improves the corresponding result of Friedl-Nagel-Orson-Powell in the topological category. We say a knot in $S^1times S^2$ is slice (resp. topologically slice) if it bounds a smooth (resp. locally flat) disk in $D^2times S^2$. We show that there are infinitely many topological concordance classes of non-slice knots, and moreover, for any winding number other than $pm 1$, there are infinitely many topological concordance classes even within the collection of slice knots. Additionally we demonstrate the distinction between the smooth and topological categories by constructing infinite families of slice knots that are topologically but not smoothly concordant, as well as non-slice knots that are topologically slice and topologically concordant, but not smoothly concordant.

The Hecke algebra H_n contains well known idempotents E_{lambda} which are indexed by Young diagrams with n cells. They were originally described by Gyoja. A skein theoretical description of E_{lambda} was given by Aiston and Morton. The closure of E _{lambda} becomes an element Q_{lambda} of the skein of the annulus. In this skein, they are known to obey the same multiplication rule as the symmetric Schur functions s_{lambda}. But previous proofs of this fact used results about quantum groups which were far beyond the scope of skein theory. Our elementary proof uses only skein theory and basic algebra.
We classify the Legendrian torus knots in S^1times S^2 with its standard tight contact structure up to Legendrian isotopy.
