Abstract: | For spaces of knots in ℝ3, the Vassiliev theory defines the so-called cocycles of finite order. The zero-dimensional cocycles are finite-order invariants. The first nontrivial cocycle of positive dimension in the space
of long knots is one-dimensional and is of order 3. We apply the combinatorial formula given by Vassiliev in his paper |
