On the Kauffman bracket skein module of (S1 × S2) # (S1 × S2)

Determining the structure of the Kauffman bracket skein module of all 3-manifolds over the ring of Laurent polynomials Z[A±1] is a big open problem in skein theory. Very little is known about the skein module of non-prime manifolds over this ring. In this paper, we compute the Kauffman bracket skein...
