Special Case

AbstractResults of Kirillov and Reshetikhin on constructing invariants of framed links from the quantum group SU(2)q are adapted to give a simple formula relating the invariants for a satellite link to those of the companion and pattern links used in its construction. The special case of parallel links is treated first. It is shown as a consequence that any SU(2)q-invariant of a link L is a linear combination of Jones polynomials of parallels of L, where the combination is determined explicitly from the representation ring of SU(2). As a simple illustration Yamada's relation between the Jones polynomial of the 2-parallel of L and an evaluation of Kauffman's polynomial for sublinks of L is deduced.
