Abstract: Following the recent work by T.-H. Chan in [HOMFLY polynomial of some generalized Hopf links, J. Knot Theory Ramif. 9 (2000) 865--883] on reverse string parallels of the Hopf link we give an alternative approach to finding the Homfly polynomials of these links, based on the Homfly skein of the annulus. We establish that two natural skein maps have distinct eigenvalues, answering a question raised by Chan, and use this result to calculate the Homfly polynomial of some more general reverse string satellites of the Hopf link.

Review text

The generalized Hopf links in question are constructed by replacing each of the two components of a Hopf link by a set of unknotted parallel circles of mixed orientations. To compute their Homfly polynomials, a connection to the skein of the annulus is established, using the skein relations of the framed Homfly polynomial. A key point consists in describing a generalized Hopf link within the skein of the annulus via the endomorphism of the skein generated by adding the bounding circle of a transversal disk to a basic circle of the annulus.
