On the Kauffman Bracket Skein Module of the Quaternionic Manifold

Abstract

We use recoupling theory to study the Kauffman bracket skein module of the quaternionic manifold over Z[A(+/- 1)] localized by inverting all the cyclotomic polynomials. We prove that the skein module is spanned by five elements. Using the quantum invariants of these skein elements and the Z(2)-homology of the manifold, we determine that they are linearly independent
