A parity map of framed chord diagrams
read the original abstract
We consider framed chord diagrams, i.e. chord diagrams with chords of two types. It is well known that chord diagrams modulo 4T-relations admit Hopf algebra structure, where the multiplication is given by any connected sum with respect to the orientation. But in the case of framed chord diagrams a natural way to define a multiplication is not known yet. In the present paper, we first define a new module $\mathcal{M}_2$ which is generated by chord diagrams on two circles and factored by $4$T-relations. Then we construct a "covering" map from the module of framed chord diagrams into $\mathcal{M}_2$ and a weight system on $\mathcal{M}_2$. Using the map and weight system we show that a connected sum for framed chord diagrams is not a well-defined operation. In the end of the paper we touch linear diagrams, the circle replaced by a directed line.
