Abstract: We describe, for a few small examples, the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of a surface crossed with an interval. If the surface is a punctured torus the result is a quantization of the symmetric algebra in three variables (and an algebra closely related to a cyclic quantization of $U(s{o}_3$). For a torus without boundary we obtain a quantization of "the symmetric homologies" of a torus (equivalently, the coordinate ring of the $S{L}_2(C)$-character variety of $ZoplusZ$). Presentations are also given for the four punctured sphere and twice punctured torus. We conclude with an investigation of central elements and zero divisors.

Review text

Let \(R\) be any commutative ring with unit and \(A\) invertible in \(R\). According to \textit{J. Hoste} and \textit{J. H. Przytycki} [Knots 90, Proc. Int. Conf. Knot Theory Rel. Topics, Osaka/Japan 1990, 363-379 (1992; Zbl 0772.57022)] and to \textit{J. H. Przytycki} [Bull. Pol. Acad. Sci., Math. 39, No. 1/2, 91-100 (1991; Zbl 0762.57013)], the Kauffman bracket skein module of an oriented 3-manifold \(M\) is \(S_{2,\infty}(M; R,A)= R{\mathcal L}_{fr}/S_{2,\infty}\), where \({\mathcal L}_{fr}\) denotes unoriented framed links in \(M\), and \(S_{2,\infty}\) is a suitable submodule of \({\mathcal L}_{fr}\). The present paper makes use of existing results by \textit{D. Bullock} [Comment. Math. Helv. 72, No. 4, 521-542 (1997; Zbl 0907.57010)] and by \textit{J. H. Przytycki} and \textit{A. S. Sikora} [Topology 39, No. 1, 115-148 (2000; Zbl 0958.57011)], in order to obtain explicit computations of \(S_{2,\infty}(M; R,A)\), in case \(M\) being the product between the interval \(I\) and the oriented surface \(F_{g,n}\) of genus \(g\) with \(n\) boundary components, for \((g,n)\in \{(1,0), (1,1), (1,2),(0, 4)\}\). Moreover, both central elements and zero divisors of \(S_{2,\infty}(M; R,A)\) are directly computed, as far as the torus (without boundary) \(F_{1,0}\), the punctured torus \(F_{1,1}\) and the four-punctured sphere \(F_{0,4}\) are concerned.
