New polynomial decategorifications of the quandle coloring quiver

In this paper, we introduce two new families of polynomial invariants of oriented classical and virtual knots and links defined as decategorifications of the quandle coloring quiver. We provide examples to illustrate the computation of the invariants, show that they are not determined by the quandle counting invariant, and compute tables of invariants values for some small quandles.

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce two new families of polynomial invariants of oriented classical and virtual knots and links defined as decategorifications of the quandle coloring quiver. We provide examples to illustrate the computation of the invariants, show that they are not determined by the quandle counting invariant, and compute tables of invariants values for some small quandles.
