It is well known that the derivatives of the Alexander polynomial \(\Delta(t)\) of a link in \(S^3\) evaluated at \(t=1\) (or alternatively, the coefficients of the Conway polynomial) are invariants of finite type. In this paper, the authors consider invariants of finite type of 2-knots (embeddings of \(S^2\) into \(\mathbb{R}^4\) bounding ribbon 3-disks), defined by replacing the crossing change by a local move of their ribbon 3-disks, and prove an analogous result for the derivatives of the Alexander polynomial of such 2-knots evaluated at \(t=1\). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0919.00057].
