ON EXTENDED INVARIANTS OF VIRTUAL PSEUDO PRIME KNOTS
We generalize ascending number and unknotting number of virtual knots to formulate their relationship with the virtual bridge number. We show that there are infinitely many homotopy classes of virtual knots that preserve the virtual bridge index as a virtual ascending number or virtual unknotting number. We construct a table of ascending numbers, unknotting numbers, bridge numbers and crossing numbers for pseudo prime virtual knots of less than five crossings.
