亞歷山大–康威多項式

• ${\displaystyle \nabla (O)=1}$ (unknot)
• ${\displaystyle \nabla (L_{+})-\nabla (L_{-})=z\nabla (L_{0})}$

${\displaystyle \Delta _{L}(t^{2})=\nabla _{L}(t-t^{-1})}$

${\displaystyle \Delta (L_{+})-\Delta (L_{-})=(t^{1/2}-t^{-1/2})\Delta (L_{0})}$

1. Alexander describes his skein relation toward the end of his paper under the heading "miscellaneous theorems", which is possibly why it got lost. Joan Birman mentions in her paper New points of view in knot theory (Bull. Amer. Math. Soc. (N.S.) 28 (1993), no. 2, 253–287) that Mark Kidwell brought her attention to Alexander's relation in 1970.
