On the Casson knot invariant
Polyak, Michael · Viro, Oleg
Original · EN
We study the Vassiliev knot invariant v₂ of degree 2. We present it via the degrees of maps of various configuration spaces related to a knot to products of spheres. This gives rise to numerous geometrical and combinatorial formulas for this invariant.
