"Construction of Jones Polynomial for Knots (via Tangles)"
Abstract

: 

 Jones Polynomial is an invariant of an oriented knot or link which assigns to each oriented knot or link a Laurent polynomial 
 in the variable t^{1/2} with integer coefficients. We shall discuss the relationship between Jones Polynomial and representation 
 of Knots through Tangles.
