Abstract
If is an oriented –manifold, let denote the Homflypt skein module of We show that is isomorphic to modulo torsion. In fact, we show that is isomorphic to if we are working over a certain localized ring. We show the similar result holds for relative skein modules. If contains a separating –sphere, we give conditions under which certain relative skein modules of vanish over specified localized rings.
