Technically, an Alexander polynomial is a generator of a principal Alexander ideal related to the homology of the infinitely cyclic cover of a knot complement—where all the emphasised phrases have particular mathematical meanings.
(this is an Alexander polynomial of the knot).
HOMFLYPT is a binary (two-variable) polynomial, with as with the predecessors.

 math lessons - Laurent series
In mathematics, the Laurent series of a complex function f(z) is a representation of that function as a power series which includes terms of negative degree.
Laurent series with complex coefficients are an important tool in complex analysis, especially to investigate the behavior of functions near singularities.
Two such formal Laurent series may be added by adding the coefficients, and because of the finiteness of the negative-degree coefficients, they may also be multiplied using convolution of the coefficient sequences.

The structure of these Laurent polynomials was what led Mills, Robbins and Rumsey to define alternating sign matrices in the first place, and it turns out that a very perspicuous way of understanding the terms of these Laurent polynomials is to view them as domino tilings of Aztec diamonds in algebraic clothing.
I've conjectured that in this Laurent polynomial, every coefficient is equal to 1, and that moreover the exponents of the x-variables and z-variables are always +1, 0 or -1 while the exponents of the y-variables are always -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4.
For each monomial in one of the Laurent polynomials hex(i,j,k), the exponents of the x-variables naturally form a triangular array of integers (the entries of which conjecturally must be in the set {-1,0,+1}).

 Shift operator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Spaces of polynomials carry numerous topological structures; shift operators can be constructed by extension on corresponding complete spaces.
One can say that the analogue in this case of the polynomial representation is that by Laurent polynomials.
The theory of analytic functions is related to that of polynomials, by allowing infinite power series; on the other hand meromorphic functions have Laurent series that terminate in the direction of negative exponents.

 [ref] 60 Polynomials and Rational Functions
A Laurent polynomial is a univariate rational function whose denominator is a monomial.
Laurent polynomials also can be considered as quotients of a univariate polynomial by a power of the indeterminate.
The addition and multiplication of univariate polynomials extends to Laurent polynomials (though it might be impossible to interpret a Laurent polynomial as a function) and many functions for univariate polynomials extend to laurent polynomials (or extended versions for laurent polynomials exist).

 1. Introduction
He used polynomials as rules by giving an admissible term ordering on the terms and using the largest monomial according to this ordering as a left hand side of a rule.
A Gröbner basis now is a set of polynomials G such that every polynomial in the polynomial ring has a unique normal form with respect to reduction using the polynomials in G as rules (especially the polynomials in the ideal generated by G reduce to zero using G).
For the polynomial ring Buchberger developed a terminating procedure to transform a finite generating set of a polynomial ideal into a finite Gröbner basis of the same ideal.

The set of all Laurent polynomials L(R) over a ring R together with above definitions of + and * is again a ring, the Laurent polynomial ring over R, and R is called the base ring of L(R).
As was already noted in the introduction to this chapter polynomial rings are rings, so all ring functions (see chapter Rings) are applicable to polynomial rings.

 REACH: A Dozen Laurent Recurrences
In each case other than #11, the intent is that you should type f(n) (or f(n,0) or f(n,0,0), as needed) for various small values of n and observe that the output in each case is a Laurent polynomial; that is, when it is written as a rational function, the denominator is just a product.
These polynomials have an even clearer relationship to the combinatorial model of matchings-of-the-Aztec-diamond-graph than the Laurent polynomials of the preceding example.
All the coefficients in the Laurent polynomial f(n,k) are equal to 1, and the individual monomials correspond to the perfect matchings of certain graphs (whose structure became clear through email conversations between Ron Adin, Robin Chapman, Ira Gessel, Rick Kenyon, Christian Krattenthaler, Eric Kuo, and myself).

But wait, in the ring of Laurent polynomials, not every nonzero element is invertible.
You know the routine for computing the GCD of the first two polynomials: subtract and so replace the second by x+1, then subtract a multiple of this from the first to get 0; arriving at 0 informs us that the last term (x+1) is the GCD.

Most intriguingly (for me), if we record, for each polynomial, the coefficient of the highest-degree monomial, we get the integer sequence 1 2 2 6 16 16 176 512 512 22016 65536 65536 Two thirds of these terms are powers of two.
In situations where the original recurrence gives rise to Laurent polynomials in which all coefficients are 1, you won't get anything really new out of this (assuming that Laurentness holds at all).
E.g., there are cases in which the Laurent polynomial x should be viewed as 1/(x^{-1}).

For many matrices of polynomials, especially over the ground ring of integers or rationals, it is faster to figure out the degree of the determinant, evaluate the determinant at a set of values (say, integers), and then interpolate to compute the determinant from these values.
