The head and tail conjecture for alternating knots

Abstract: We investigate the coefficients of the highest and lowest terms (also called the head and the tail) of the colored Jones polynomial and show that they stabilize for alternating links and for adequate links. To do this we apply techniques from skein theory. 57M25, 57M27

“…These two link invariants which take the form of formal q-series with integer coefficients. The existence of these two power series was conjectured by Dasbach and Lin [6] and was proven by Armond in [3]. Higher stability of the coefficients of the colored Jones polynomial of an alternating link was shown by Garoufalidis and Le in [7].…”

“…In [3] C. Armond and O. Dasbach defined a product structure on the tail of the color Jones polynomial. In this section we will define a few product structures on the tail of trivalent graphs in S(S 2 ) using similar techniques to the ones in [3].…”
