A quasi-cylinder over a commutative ring \(R\) is an oriented 3-manifold \(M\) endowed with a submodule \(V\) of the \(R\)-module \(H_1(\partial M;R)\) such that the inclusion homomorphism \(V\to H_1(M;R)\) is an isomorphism. The authors extend some classical invariants of links in the 3-sphere to links in so-called quasi-cylinders.
