摘要
The extended Alexander group of an oriented virtual link l of d components is defined. From its abelianization a sequence of polynomial invariants Delta (i)(u(1),...,u(d),v), i = 0, 1,..., is obtained . When l is a classical link, Delta (i) reduces to the well-known ith Alexander polynomial of the link in the d variables u(1)v,...,u(d)v; in particular, Delta (0) vanishes.
