5 A marked graph diagram Γ is said to be admissible if both resolutions Γ + and Γ are link diagrams of trivial links. Theorem (Kearton-Kurlin, Swenton, Yoshikawa) () Let L be a surface-link. Then there is an admissible marked graph diagram Γ s.t. L is presented by Γ. (2) Let Γ be an admissible marked graph diagram. Then there is a surface-link L s.t. L is presented by Γ.

8 Quandles A quandle is a set X with a binary operation : X X X satisfying (Q) For any x X, x x = x. (Q2) For any x,y X, there is a unique z X such that z y = x. (Q3) For any x,y,z X, (x y) z = (x z) (y z). In (Q2), the unique element z is denoted by x ȳ, and then x = z y = (x ȳ) y. Jieon Kim (Jointly with S. Kamada and S. Y.

10 Quandle coloring invariants of oriented surface-links Let B be a broken surface diagram of an oriented surface-link L with co-orientation. A coloring of B is a function C : S(B) X, where S(B) is the set of sheets of B and X is a finite quandle, satisfying the following conditions at double point curves. At a double point curve, let the co-orientation of over-sheet x is from y to z. Then C (z) = C (y) C (x). Let Col X (B) be the set of all colorings of a broken surface diagram B by X. y x z Jieon Kim (Jointly with S. Kamada and S. Y.

11 Theorem (Rosicki) Let L be an oriented surface-link and let B be a broken surface diagram of L. Then the cardinality, #Col X (B), of Col X (B) is an invariant of L, which is called a quandle coloring invariant of L and denoted by #Col X (L ). Jieon Kim (Jointly with S. Kamada and S. Y.

12 Quandle coloring invariants #Col X (L ) via marked graph diagrams Let Γ be a marked graph diagram with co-orientation. Let A (Γ) be the set of the connected components of Γ. A coloring of Γ is a function C : A (Γ) X satisfying the following condition: For each crossing c C(Γ), let s 2 contain the over arc and let s and s 3 contain the under arcs involved in the crossing c as shown below such that the normal of the over arc in s 2 points from the arc in s to the arc in s 3. Then it must be satisfied that C (s 3 ) = C (s ) C (s 2 ). s 2 s c s 3 We denote by Col X (Γ) the set of all X-colorings of Γ. Jieon Kim (Jointly with S. Kamada and S. Y.

Carter-Jelsovsky-Kamada-Langford-Saito defined quandle homology group H Q (X;A) and the quandle cohomology group H Q (X;A). Note that a quandle 3-cocycle f : X X X A satisfies () f (x,x,y) = and f (x,y,y) = for all x,y X. (2) f (x,y,w)f (x y,z,w)f (x w,y w,z w) = f (x,z,w)f (x,y,z)f (x z,y z,w), for each x,y,z,w X.

19 The partition function of B is defined by Φ θ (B) = C τ B(τ,C ) Z[A], where the product is taken over all triple points, and the sum is taken over all possible colorings. Theorem (Carter-Jelsovsky-Kamada-Langford-Saito) Let L be an oriented surface-link and let B be a broken surface diagram of L. Then the partition function Φ θ (B) is an invariant of L, which is called a quandle 3-cocycle invariant of L and denoted by Φ θ (L ). Jieon Kim (Jointly with S. Kamada and S. Y.

22 Definition () Let C : A (Γ) X be a coloring of Γ. Let x Γ 3 Γ 3. The weight B(x,C ), for x Γ 3 Γ 3, is defined by θ(a,b,c) ε r(x)ε tm (x)ε b (x), where ε r : Γ 3 Γ 3 {, } is the function defined by ε r (x) = if x Γ 3 and ε r (x) = otherwise. (2) The partition function of a marked graph diagram is defined by the state-sum expression Φ θ (Γ) = C x Γ 3 Γ 3 B(x,C ). Theorem Let L be an oriented surface-link and let Γ be a marked graph diagram of L. Then Φ θ (L ) = Φ θ (Γ). Jieon Kim (Jointly with S. Kamada and S. Y.
