KBSM of lens spaces L(p,2) and L(4k,2k + 1)

J. Hoste and J. H. Przytycki computed the Kauffman bracket skein module (KBSM) of lens spaces in their papers published in 1993 and 1995. By using a basis for the KBSM of a fibered torus, we construct new bases for the KBSMs of two families of lens spaces: [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text]. For KBSM of [Formula: see text], we find a new generating set that yields its decomposition into a direct sum of cyclic modules.

Abstract

J. Hoste and J. H. Przytycki computed the Kauffman bracket skein module (KBSM) of lens spaces in their papers published in 1993 and 1995. By using a basis for the KBSM of a fibered torus, we construct new bases for the KBSMs of two families of lens spaces: [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text]. For KBSM of [Formula: see text], we find a new generating set that yields its decomposition into a direct sum of cyclic modules.
