Abstract: Starting from the work by Jones on representations of Thompson's group $F$, subgroups of $F$ with interesting properties have been defined and studied. One of these subgroups is called the $3$-colorable subgroup $mathcalF$, which consists of elements whose ``regions given by their tree diagrams are $3$-colorable. On the other hand, in his work on representations, Jones also gave a method to construct knots and links from elements of $F$. Therefore it is a natural question to explore a relationship between elements in $mathcalF$ and $3$-colorable links in the sense of knot theory. In this paper, we show that all elements in $mathcalF$ give 3-colorable links.
