Abstract We conjecture a closed-form expression of HOMFLY-PT invariants of double twist knots colored by rectangular Young diagrams where the twist is encoded in interpolation Macdonald polynomials. We also put forth a conjecture of cyclotomic expansions of HOMFLY-PT polynomials colored by rectangular Young diagrams for any knot.

1 Introduction Colored HOMFLY-PT polynomials are two-variable quantum knot invariants associated with irreducible representations of A N type Lie algebras. Although several methods to compute HOMFLY-PT polynomials for arbitrary color in principle are known, carrying out explicit computation is practically very challenging for general non-torus knots and colors. However, in recent years, studying the structural properties of colored HOMFLY-PT polynomials, closed-form expressions for symmetric representations have been found for a certain class of non-torus knots. Actually, the structural properties become more apparent at the level of HOMFLYPT homology that categorifies quantum HOMFLY-PT polynomials. Lately, the HOMFLY-PT homology colored by arbitrary representations has been defined in [1]. Although it is formidable to carry out computation of homology via the definition, various structural properties of HOMFLY-PT homology have been uncovered by combining mathematical definitions and physical predictions. In particular, it was propo
