Warning. There is a mixup in
the original (1976) Rolfsen table between the pictures and the
invariants of the knots 10_83 and 10_86. That mixup lead to a similar
mixup here. In the new (2003) edition of Rolfsen's book the mixup was
corrected and on August 17, 2004, it was corrected here (actually in Dror's original Knot Atlas) consistently
with Rolfsen's correction. In the years between 1976 and 2003 other
authors fixed the problem in different ways and our enumeration here
may be different than theirs. Dror would like to thank Z-X. Tao for telling him
about the (now corrected) mixup here and A. Stoimenow for
telling him about the mixup in Rolfsen's original table.

The coefficients of the monomials are shown, along with their alternating sums (fixed , alternation over ). The squares with yellow highlighting are those on the "critical diagonals", where or , where 0 is the signature of 10 86. Nonzero entries off the critical diagonals (if any exist) are highlighted in red.
