1. Introduction
Eisermann and Lamm introduced a notion of symmetric equivalence among symmetric union diagrams and defined a Laurent polynomial invariant under symmetric equivalence [2]. The authors of the present paper tackled the problem of symmetric equivalence by considering a stronger version of symmetric equivalence and using topological spin models to define invariants for both types of equivalence [1]. Here we introduce a different approach to study symmetric equivalence and, as an application, we resolve a question left open in both [2] and [1]. In Subsections 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 we collect the necessary background material and in Subsection 1.4 we state our results.
1.1. Symmetric diagrams and symmetric equivalences
The involution of the real two-plane given by fixes the axis pointwise. We declare two diagrams to be identical if one is sent to the other by an orientation-preserving diffeomorphism such that and . An oriented link diagram is symmetric if is obtained from by changing the orientation and switching all the crossings on the axis. A symmetric diagram is a symmetric union if sends each component of to itself in an orientation-reversing fashion, implying that crosses the axis perpendicularly in exactly two non–crossing points. Figure 1 illustrates the symmetric union diagrams and , first considered by Eisermann and Lamm [2].
Following [2], we define a symmetric Reidemeister move off the axis as an ordinary Reidemeister move on a symmetric diagram carried out, away from the axis , together with its mirror-symmetric counterpart with respect to . A symmetric Reidemeister move on the axis is one of the moves illustrated in Figure 2. Eisermann and Lamm consider also two extra moves S1() and S2(v), some of which are illustrated in Figure 3.
It is understood all of these moves admit variants obtained by turning the corresponding pictures upside down, mirroring or rotating them around the axis (cf. [2, §2.3]).
Definitions 1.1**.**
Two oriented, symmetric diagrams which can be obtained from each other via a finite sequence of symmetric Reidemester moves on and off the axis (sR-moves) and S1-moves will be called symmetrically equivalent. If they can be obtained from each other using sR-moves, S1- and S2(v)-moves, we will say that the diagrams are weakly symmetrically equivalent.
1.2. Eisermann and Lamm’s results
Eisermann and Lamm [2] showed that there exists an infinite family of pairs of symmetric union -bridge knot diagrams such that and are Reidemeister equivalent but not weakly symmetrically equivalent for and . and are the diagrams of Figure 1. Eisermann and Lamm established their result using an invariant of weak symmetric equivalence defined as follows. Let denote the set of oriented planar link diagrams transverse to the axis . Let be the quotient field of the ring of Laurent polynomials with integer coefficients in the variables and . Eisermann and Lamm [2] define a map such that if and are weakly symmetrically equivalent. By [2, Proposition 5.6], if represents a link and has no crossings on the axis then
[TABLE]
where is the Jones-polynomial of the link , normalized so that on the -component unlink it takes the value . Moreover, if has crossings on the axis, then the following skein-like recursion formulas hold:
[TABLE]
It turns out [2, Proposition 1.8] that when is a symmetric union knot diagram, then is an honest Laurent polynomial that we shall call the refined Jones polynomial. The diagrams and have the same refined Jones polynomial, so the question of their weak symmetric equivalence was left unanswered in [2].
1.3. Invariants from topological spin models
The theory of topological spin models for links in was introduced in [3]. Here we follow the reformulation used in [1], to which we refer the reader for further details. Fix an integer , denote by the space of square complex matrices, and let . Given a symmetric, complex matrix with non-zero entries, let be the matrix uniquely determined by the equation
[TABLE]
where is the Hadamard, i.e. entry-wise, product and is the all- matrix. Define, for each matrix with non-zero entries and , the vector by setting
[TABLE]
Then, the pair is a spin model if the following equations hold:
[TABLE]
The following definition was introduced in [1, Remark 1.3].
Definition 1.2**.**
A Potts-refined spin model is a triple such that:
- •
is a spin model;
- •
, where is one of the four complex numbers such that .
Let be a a Potts-refined spin model, a symmetric union diagram and a chequerboard colouring of . Let be the planar, signed medial graph associated to the black regions of . Let , be the sets of vertices, respectively edges of and let . Given , we denote by and (in any order) the vertices of . The set contains the set of edges corresponding to crossings on the axis. Let , and define the partition function by the formula
[TABLE]
where is the sign of the edge , and the normalized partition function by
[TABLE]
where and denote, respectively, the numbers of positive and negative crossings on the axis. When is not connected and are defined as the product of the values of and, respectively, on its connected components with the induced colourings. It turns out [1] that the complex number is independent of the choice of , so we can write more simply . Moreover, by a special case of [1, Theorem 1.3], if and are oriented, weakly symmetrically equivalent symmetric union diagrams, then
[TABLE]
In [1, Subsection 4.2] we showed that, for a suitable choice of , the invariant defined above can distinguish, up to weak symmetric equivalence, infinitely many Reidemeister equivalent symmetric union diagrams. We also showed [1, Subsection 4.2] that more general invariants can distinguish the diagrams and up to symmetric equivalence, but we were unable to use invariants coming from spin models to rule out that the diagrams and of Figure 1 are weakly symmetrically equivalent.
1.4. Statements of results
Given a symmetric union diagram and an integer , define a new symmetric union diagram by replacing each crossing on the axis with consecutive crossings, having the same or opposite type depending on the sign of . The precise convention is specified in Figure 4, where a number inside a box denotes a sequence of consecutive half-twists on the axis, each of sign equal to , the sign of .
The following theorem is established in Section 2.
Theorem 1.3**.**
Let and be two symmetric diagrams. If and are (weakly) symmetrically equivalent, then and are (weakly) symmetrically equivalent for each .
Clearly, if for any integer the diagrams and can be shown to be (weakly) symmetrically inequivalent, it follows from Theorem 1.3 that and cannot be (weakly) symmetrically equivalent. It is therefore natural to ask whether the weak symmetric equivalence of and could be decided by showing that and have different refined Jones polynomials or different Potts-refined spin model invariants. It turns out that this is impossible: in Section 3 we show that, for any , the diagrams and have the same refined Jones polynomial and Potts-refined spin model invariants. Nevertheless, in Section 4 we use Theorem 1.3 to prove the following.
Theorem 1.4**.**
The Reidemeister equivalent symmetric union diagrams and are not weakly symmetrically equivalent.
Notice that Theorem 1.4 resolves the question left open in [2, 1] about the weak symmetric equivalence of the diagrams and . The proof of Theorem 1.4 is based on the simple fact that if two symmetric union diagrams and are symmetrically equivalent then they are, in particular, Reidemeister equivalent and therefore represent the same link in . Thus, to prove Theorem 1.4 it suffices to show that the knots and , represented respectively by the diagrams and , are distinct. This can be accomplished in a number of ways. We sketch a few, and provide the details of a computation showing that and have different torsion numbers.
The paper is organized as follows. In Section 2 we prove Theorem 1.3. In Section 3 we show that and have the same refined Jones polynomial and Potts-refined spin model invariants. In Section 4 we prove Theorem 1.4.
2. Proof of Theorem 1.3
The following Lemmas 2.1 and 2.2 deal with generalizations of, respectively, the -move and the -move. The lemmas play a key rôle in the proof of Theorem 1.3.
Lemma 2.1**.**
Suppose that the symmetric diagrams and differ by the -move defined in Figure 5. Then, and are connected by a sequence of symmetric Reidemeister moves off the axis and -moves. In particular, and are symmetrically equivalent.
Proof.
Since when or an S4(,)-move reduces to a symmetric pair of second Reidemeister moves off the axis, we may assume without loss of generality that . We suppose first that and are both positive and we establish the statement by induction on and . The basis of the induction holds because an -move is just an ordinary -move. Assume that the statement holds for -moves with and . The inductive step is established by proving the statement for -moves and -moves. Figure 6 shows that an -move can be decomposed into a sequence of symmetric Reidemeister moves and -moves with .
More precisely, to go from Figure 6(a) to Figure 6(b) we use two symmetric second Reidemeister moves off the axis, to go from Figure 6(b) to Figure 6(c) one S4-move and to go from Figure 6(c) to Figure 6(d) one -move. A similar sequence of moves can be used to prove the inductive step for an -move.
For the other choices of signs of and the argument is essentially the same, except that one needs to perform the double induction on and and modify accordingly Figure 6 and its analogue for the -move. The obvious details are left to the reader. ∎
Lemma 2.2**.**
Suppose that the symmetric diagrams and differ by the -move defined in Figure 7. Then, and are connected by a sequence of symmetric Reidemeister moves off the axis, -moves and -moves. In particular, and are symmetrically equivalent.
Proof.
Note that the statement is obvious for . We describe the proof for the -move with because the other cases can be proved similarly. We are going to argue by induction on , so we start assuming that the statement is true for -moves with . Performing a symmetric -move on the left-hand side tangle of Figure 7 we obtain the tangle of Figure 8(a). After an -move and some symmetric Reidemeister moves off the axis, the tangle of Figure 8(a) can be modified into the tangle in Figure 8(b). By Lemma 2.1 this means that the tangles of Figures 8(a) and 8(b) are obtained from each other via a sequence of -moves and Reidemeister moves off the axis. By a third Reidemeister move off the axis followed by a second Reidemeister move off the axis, the tangle of Figure 8(b) can be turned into the tangle in Figure 8(c). Now we make use of the inductive hypothesis and perform an -move to get the tangle of Figure 8(d). Finally, a single -move leads us from Figure 8(d) to the right-hand side of Figure 7, concluding the proof.
∎
Proof of Theorem 1.3.
We will argue that, whenever the diagrams and differ by a symmetric Reidemeister move , then and are weakly symmetrically equivalent if is of type , and symmetrically equivalent otherwise. This is clear for symmetric Reidemeister moves off the axis and -moves because they do not involve crossings on the axis. Suppose that is obtained from by applying an -move. Then, it is immediate that is obtained from by applying -moves. A similar reasoning applies to -moves and -moves, and since all the verifications are very simple we leave them to the reader. If is obtained from by an -move with , then is obtained from via an -move and by Lemma 2.1 and are symmetrically equivalent. Finally, if is obtained from by an -move, then is obtained from via a -move and by Lemma 2.2 and are symmetrically equivalent. ∎
3. Negative results for and the Potts-refined spin model invariants
Our aim in this section is to show that the diagrams and cannot be distinguished up to any symmetric equivalence using neither Eisermann and Lamm’s refined Jones polynomial nor any invariant coming from a Potts-refined topological spin model. This will be established in Corollary 3.2. We start with the following Proposition 3.1, which will be used in the proof of Corollary 3.2. Recall that denotes the set of oriented planar link diagrams transverse to the axis . Let , for , denote any crossingless, symmetric union diagram of the -component unlink.

Then, for each .
Proof.
Clearly . We only prove the statement for because the proof for is essentially the same. Let , , , be the diagram obtained from by replacing the top (respectively bottom) crossing on the axis with (respectively ) consecutive crossings on the axis of the same sign, and each of the other crossings on the axis with consecutive crossings on the axis of the same sign. Observe that and for each . Therefore, it suffices to prove that for each with . This follows by an easy downward induction on starting from once we show that the equality holds. It will be convenient to use the following terminology and notation. We call a horizontal resolution of a crossing on the axis a [math]-resolution and a vertical resolution of such a crossing a -resolution. We denote by , with , any symmetric union diagram obtained from by an -resolution of any of its top crossings on the axis and a -resolution of any of its bottom crossings on the axis. It is easy to check that and are weakly symmetrically equivalent to , is weakly symmetrically equivalent to and . A simple calculation using Assumption (2) yields
[TABLE]
which by (3) gives the claimed equality . ∎
Corollary 3.2**.**
For any , the refined Jones polynomial and any Potts-refined spin model invariant take the same values on and .
Proof.
Let be the refined Jones polynomial from [2]. We recalled in Subsection 1.2 that satisfies Assumption of Proposition 3.1. By Equation (1.1), since we obtain . Together with Equations (1.2) and (1.3) this immediately implies that satisfies Assumptions and of Proposition 3.1 and therefore for every .
Let be a Potts-refined spin model. By Equation 1.6 we know that satisfies Assumption of Proposition 3.1, and it follows immediately from the definition that . Using that , and , it is straightforward to check that
[TABLE]
Thus, satisfies Assumptions and of Proposition 3.1 and for every . ∎
4. Proof of Theorem 1.4
In this section we show that the diagrams and represent distinct knots and . Since this implies that and are not Reidemeister equivalent, combining this fact with Theorem 1.3 yields Theorem 1.4.
As one referee pointed out to us, to show that and are distinct it is possible to use both the Kauffmann polynomial and the colored Jones polynomial. Another possibility is to show that and have different second Alexander ideals. In a previous version of this paper 111https://arxiv.org/abs/1901.10270v2 we worked out the details of the computation of the second Alexander ideals for the infinite families of knots and given by the diagrams and , . As it turns out, the second Alexander ideals distinguish from for each . In this paper we just prove that and are distinct using their third cyclic branched covers.
Lemma 4.1**.**
Let and denote the three-fold branched covers of and , respectively. Then, we have the following isomorphisms of Abelian groups:
[TABLE]
Proof.
We start by computing Seifert matrices for and . Consider the Seifert surface for and the basis for its first homology group shown in Figure 9. The generators are divided into two groups, each of which is shown separately in Figure 9 to maximize readability.
It is straightforward to check that the associated Seifert matrix is
[TABLE]
Next, we consider a Seifert surface for and the basis for illustrated in Figure 10. As before, the generators are divided into two groups, which are shown separately.
It is easy to check that the corresponding Seifert matrix is given by
[TABLE]
Given a Seifert matrix for a knot , a presentation matrix for is given by , where and is the identity matrix [4, Satz I] (see also [5, Theorem 3]). The statement follows by computing the elementary divisors of the matrices and . ∎
Proof of Theorem 1.4.
The statement is an immediate consequence of Lemma 4.1 and Theorem 1.3. ∎
