%0 Journal Article %T A New property of quasi-alternating links %A Khaled Qazaqzeh %A Balkees Qublan %A Abeer Jaradat %J Mathematics %D 2012 %I arXiv %X We show that the crossing number of any link that is known to be quasi-alternating is less than or equal to its determinant. Based on this, we conjecture that the crossing number of any quasi-alternating link is less than or equal to its determinant. Thus, if this conjecture is proved then it would give an easier obstruction for quasi-alternateness than the ones already known. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1205.4291v1
