DAHA and iterated torus knots (Q276581): Difference between revisions

The theory of DAHA-Jones polynomials is extended from torus knots to iterated torus knot, for any reduced root systems and weights. This is inspired by \textit{P. Samuelson}'s construction for the \(\mathfrak{sl}_2\) case [``Iterated torus knots and double affine Hecke algebras'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:1408.0483}]. The paper proves polynomiality, duality and other properties, and computes several examples. They conjecture that these polynomials specialize to Khovanov-Rozansky polynomials, which was since proven by \textit{H. Morton} and \textit{P. Samuelson} [Duke Math. J. 166, No. 5, 801--854 (2017; Zbl 1369.16034)]. The same authors have since extended the DAHA-Jones polynomials to iterated torus links [\textit{A. Beliakova} (ed.) and \textit{A. D. Lauda} (ed.), Categorification in geometry, topology, and physics. Providence, RI: American Mathematical Society (AMS) (2017; Zbl 1362.81007)].
