Link Invariants Associated with Gauge Equivalent Solutions of the Yang–Baxter Equation: The One-Parameter Family of Minimal Typical Representations of Uq[gl(2|1)]
Let \(V\) be a vector space. A solution \(\check{R}(u)\in\text{End}(V\otimes{V})\) with complex parameter \(u\) to the following equation (trigonometric Yang-Baxter equation) is called a trigonometric R-matrix: \[ (\check{R}(u)\otimes\text{Id}_{V}) (\text{Id}_{V}\otimes\check{R}(u+v)) (\check{R}(v)\otimes\text{Id}_{V})= (\text{Id}_{V}\otimes\check{R}(v) (\check{R}(u+v)\otimes\text{Id}_{V}) (\text{Id}_{V}\otimes\check{R}(u)). \] If the limit \(\lim_{u\to\infty}\check{R}(u)\) exits, then it satisfies the quantum Yang-Baxter equation \[ (\check{R}\otimes\text{Id}_{V}) (\text{Id}_{V}\otimes\check{R}) (\check{R}\otimes\text{Id}_{V}) = (\text{Id}_{V}\otimes\check{R}) (\check{R}\otimes\text{Id}_{V}) (\text{Id}_{V}\otimes\check{R}), \] and is called a quantum R-matrix. It is well known that a quantum R-matrix defines a representation of the braid group and that in most cases it also defines an (ambient isotopic) invariant of links. If one changes \(\check{R}(u)\) by a conjugation, one also has a trigonometric R-matrix and may have a quantum R-matrix. The new R-matrix is called gauge equivalent to the old one. In the paper under review the authors study R-matrices derived from the quantum superalgebra \(U_{q}[gl(2|1)]\) and show that gauge equivalent R-matrices may define different link invariants. More precisely, the original R-matrix defines the Links-Gould invariant [\textit{D. De Wit}, \textit{J. R. Links} and \textit{L. H. Kauffman}, J. Knot Theory Ramifications 8, No. 2, 165--199 (1999; Zbl 0934.57005); \textit{D. De Wit}, J. Knot Theory Ramifications 9, No. 3, 311--339 (2000; Zbl 0999.57014)] and its gauge equivalent R-matrices define the Alexander polynomial and the Jones polynomial, which is confirmed only for knots with up to ten crossings.
