Skein modules of links in cylinders over surfaces
We define the Conway skein module 𝒞 (M) of ordered based links in a 3-manifold M. This module gives rise to 𝒞 (M)-valued invariants of usual links in M. We determine a basis of the ℤ[z]-module 𝒞 (Σ×[0,1])/Tor (𝒞 (Σ×[0,1])), where Σ is the real projective plane or a surface with boundary. For cylinde...
