This is the construction / computation page for my joint paper with Roland van der Veen, Poly-Time Knot Polynomials Via Solvable Approximations (PDF here).
Abstract. Following Rozansky [Ro1, Ro2, Ro3] and Overbay [Ov], we construct the first poly-time-computable knot polynomials since Alexander's [Al, 1928]. We use some new commutator-calculus techniques and a family of Lie algebra $sl_2^{\leq k}$ which are solvable yet at the same time they make progressively better approximations of the simple Lie algebra $sl_2$. The resulting invariants are the strongest genuinely-computable knot invariants presently available and they seem to contain information about some classical topologically-defined knot invariants.
