We define a family of link concordance invariants {sn}n=2,3,\left\{ s_n \right\}_{n=2,3, \cdots}. These link concordance invariants give lower bounds on the slice genus of a link LL. We compute the slice genus of positive links. Moreover, these invariants give lower bounds on the link splitting number of a link. Especially, t…

We also exhibit a class of diagrams fo…

Given a diagram D of a knot K, we give easily computable bounds for Rasmussen's concordance invariant s(K). The bounds are not independent of the diagram D chosen, but we show that for diagrams satisfying a given condition the bounds are tight. As a corollary we improve on previously known Bennequin-type bounds on the …

The slicing number of a knot, us(K)u_s(K), is the minimum number of crossing changes required to convert KK to a slice knot. This invariant is bounded above by the unknotting number and below by the slice genus gs(K)g_s(K). We show that for many knots, previous bounds on unknotting number obtained by Ozsvath and Szabo and b…

We define invariants of braids rather than invariants of conjugacy classes of braids. For any pure three-braid we give effective upper and lower bounds for these invariants. This is done in terms of a natural syllable decomposition of the word representing the image of the braid in the braid group modulo its center. Th…

In the present paper we extend the definition of slice-torus invariant to links. We prove a few properties of the newly-defined slice-torus link invariants: the behaviour under crossing change, a slice genus bound, an obstruction to strong sliceness, and a combinatorial bound. Furthermore, we provide an application to …
