Review text

Virtual knot theory is the study of stable classes of links in oriented \(3\)-manifolds which are line bundles over closed oriented surfaces. \textit{M. O. Bourgoin} [Algebr. Geom. Topol. 8, No. 3, 1249--1279 (2008; Zbl 1149.57004)] introduced twisted links as an extension of virtual links by considering link diagrams in oriented \(3\)-manifolds which are line bundles over any closed surface. As planar diagrams, the twisted link diagrams consist of real and virtual crossings, with possible bars which intersect the diagram transversely disjoint from the crossings. The highlights of the paper are as follows: The authors provide a classification of pseudo prime twisted knots with crossing number 3, up to weak equivalence. They prove that either there are \(81\) or \(82\) such classes of knots. The authors propose the open question whether the twisted knot named \(3_{82}\) in their table is equivalent to the trivial non-orientable curve (trivial loop with a bar). Prior to this work, the first author has investigated various invariants for twisted links, e.g. the \(X\)-polynomial using state sums, quandles for twisted links, JKSS invariants using the double covering of twisted link diagrams, checkerboard colorability, to name a few. The authors in this paper tabulate these invariants for all the classified knots. Also, the authors compute the twisted number for most of the knots from their constructed table. The invertibility, chirality and checkerboard colorability are also investigated.
