There is a way to encode links by a class of `realisable' graphs. When passing to generic graphs with the same equivalence relations we get `graph-links'. On one hand graph-links generalise the notion of virtual link, on the other hand they do not feel link mutations. We define the Jones polynomial for graph-links and prove its invariance. We also prove some a generalisation of the Kauffman-Murasugi-Thistlethwaite theorem on `minmal diagrams' for graph-links34 pages, 14 figuresGeometric TopologyCombinatorics57M25text
