Freyd} et. al. [Bull. Am. Math. Soc., New Ser. 12, 239-246 (1985; Zbl 0572.57002)]. Formulae are established which relate certain specific values of this polynomial to other invariants of L - namely \\(P_ L(1, \\sqrt{2})\\) is given in terms of the Arf invariant and number of components of L, \\(P_ L(1,1)\\) is given in terms of the dimension of \\(H_ 1(T_ L; {\\mathbb{Z}}_ 2)\\), and \\(P_ L(e^{i\\pi /6},1)\\) is given in terms of the dimension of \\(H_ 1(D_ L; {\\mathbb{Z}}_ 2)\\) and the number of components of L. Here \\(D_ L\\) and \\(T_ L\\) refer respectively to the double and triple cyclic branched cover of \\(S^ 3\\) branched over L."},"provenance":{"prov:generatedAtTime":"2026-01-06T11:30:24Z","prov:wasAttributedTo":"MaRDI Knowledge Graph"}}
