Abstract
The presentation of link polynomials, arising from representations of quantum group SLq(2) by SLq(2)-spin networks is given. The explicit form of cabling formula for these polynomials is written. The connection between 6j-symbols in q-spin network theory and Rakah-Wigner q-6j-symbols is shown. The Kauffman's hypothesis about coincidence of his 3-manifold invariants and Turaev-Viro invariants for 3-manifolds is proved.Keywords
