The Links–Quivers Correspondence for rational links
Let be a link with components, and let denote its -colored HOMFLY-PT polynomial. Define
Let be the generating function associated with a symmetric quiver , evaluated at transformed variables . Links–Quivers Correspondence. For every link , there is a symmetric quiver such that and are equal after a change of variables.
The correspondence relates generating functions of colored HOMFLY-PT polynomials to generating functions, and hence Donaldson–Thomas invariants, of symmetric quivers. The source presents this formulation as the standard Links–Quivers Correspondence and indicates that it will be given a new geometric interpretation for rational links; its resolution status is not specified here.
