A condition on the Jones polynomial for a family of positive links
Abstract
In this paper, we provide a bound on the maximum degree of the Jones polynomial of any positive link with second Jones coefficient equal to [Formula: see text]. This builds on the result of our previous work, in which we found such a bound for positive fibered links.
