Sažetak
In this paper we describe new mathematical methods which can be used to distinguish between configurations of knotted and/er linked chains in space and to determine their topological chirality. These new methods are primarily algebraic and combinatorial and are easily understood in a calculational context. The methods are presented and discussed through the study of several fundamental examples. The polynomial invariants are compared and the development of other sensitive algebraic-combinatorial invariants which may have important applications in chemistry is discussed. A table of the polynomials associated to the basic examples is given.
