    Abstract:

    We show that the values at t = 1 of the first r coefficient polynomials of the HOMFLY polynomial of an r-component link L are determined by the linking numbers. This generalizes a formula of Hoste and one of Lickorish and Millett. The formula was proved before, using a different method, by J. Przytycki and related to homotopy skein modules [15].
