Abstract
The 3-loop polynomial of a knot is a polynomial presenting the 3-loop part of the Kontsevich invariant of knots. In this paper, we calculate the 3-loop polynomial of knots obtained by plumbing the doubles of two knots; this class of knots includes untwisted Whitehead doubles. We construct the 3-loop polynomial by calculating the rational version of the Aarhus integral of a surgery presentation. As a consequence, we obtain an explicit presentation of the 3-loop polynomial for the knots.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Mathematics publishes original papers in mathematics in general, but giving a preference to those in the areas of mathematics represented by the editorial board. The journal has been published monthly except in June and December to bring out new results without delay. Occasionally, expository papers of exceptional value may also be published. The first issue appeared in March 1990.
