Polynomials of complete spatial graphs and Jones polynomial of related links

Abstract

Let $K_n$ be a complete graph with $n$ vertices. An embedding of $K_n$ in $S^3$ is called a spatial $K_n$-graph. Knots in a spatial $K_n$-graph corresponding to simple cycles of $K_n$ are said to be constituent knots. We consider the case $n=4$. The boundary of an oriented band surface with zero Seifert form, constructed for a spatial $K_4$, is a four-component associated link. There are obtained relations between normalized Yamada and Jaeger polynomials of spatial graphs and Jones polynomials of constituent knots and the associated link.
