Title: KBSM for family of small Seifert fibered 3-manifolds with multiplicity two exceptional fibers

Abstract: We show that the Kauffman bracket skein module (KBSM) of small Seifert fibered 3-manifolds with singular fibers of multiplicity two is a free module of rank 4|e| + 3, where e denotes the Euler number, and we construct its basis.

This talk is based on joint work with my former Ph.D. student, Cheyu Wu.
