BLM/Ho Polynomial
A 1-variable unoriented knot polynomial
. It satisfies

It also satisfies

where
is the knot sum and

where
is the mirror image of

The polynomial was subsequently extended to the 2-variable Kauffman polynomial F, which satisfies

Brandt et al. (1986) give a listing of
polynomials for knots up to 8 crossings and links up to 6 crossings.
