A novel symmetry of colored HOMFLY polynomials coming from $\mathfrak{sl}(N|M)$ superalgebras
2020
We present a novel symmetry of the colored HOMFLY polynomial. It relates pairs of polynomials colored by different representations at specific values of $N$ and generalizes the previously known "tug-the-hook" symmetry of the colored Alexander polynomial. As we show, the symmetry has a superalgebra origin, which we discuss qualitatively. Our main focus are the constraints that such a property imposes on the general group-theoretical structure, namely the $\mathfrak{sl}(N)$ weight system, arising in the perturbative expansion of the invariant. Finally, we demonstrate its tight relation to the eigenvalue conjecture.
