Finite type invariants filtered by forbidden moves for classical and virtual knots
Abstract: Unknotting operations are used to define filtered invariants of classical and virtual knots.  The original Vassiliev invariant is defined using crossing change.  We can also use virtual knot diagrams and an operation called “Virtualization” to obtain filtered invariants of virtual knots, called Gauss diagram formulas (Goussarov, Polyak, and Viro, 2000).  In our study, we showed that this filtration is nontrivial for each degree.  Further, we proposed a new filtered invariant of virtual knots by using “forbidden move”.  Here, we use the fact that forbidden move is an unknotting operation (Kanenobu, Nelson, independently, 2000) for virtual knots.  This talk is based on a joint work with Migiwa Sakurai (arXiv: 2008.02750).
