Factorization of colored knot polynomials at roots of unity

HOMFLY polynomials are the Wilson-loop averages in Chern–Simons theory and depend on four variables: the closed line (knot) in 3d space–time, representation R of the gauge group SU(N) and exponentiated coupling constant q. From analysis of a big variety of different knots we conclude that at q, whic...
