Bracket Polynomial

A one-variable Knot Polynomial related to the Jones Polynomial. The bracket polynomial, however, is not atopological invariant, since it is changed by type I Reidemeister Moves. However, the Spanof the bracket polynomial is a knot invariant. The bracket polynomial is occasionally given the grandiose name RegularIsotopy Invariant. It is defined by

gives a Knot Polynomial which is invariant under Regular Isotopy, and normalizing gives the Kauffman Polynomial X which is invariant under Ambient Isotopy. The bracket Polynomialof the Unknot is 1. The bracket Polynomial of the Mirror Image is the same as for but with replaced by .
