Abstract

Although the connected sum of trivial knots is trivial in classical knot theory, there is a nontrivial connected sum of trivial knots in virtual knot theory. In this paper, we give connected sum formulae of the intersection polynomials of virtual knots introduced in the preceding paper [6]. As an application, we show that there are infinitely many connected sums of any pair of virtual knots.
