Jones polynomial breadth bound for a disconnected diagram ($\mathrm{br}{V}_L\le n+k-1$)

Here $n$ is the crossing count and $k$ is the number of connected components of the planar link diagram, not necessarily the number of link components. The all-$A$ and all-$B$ state counts satisfy $s_A+s_B\le n+2k$, by summing the Turaev surface Euler characteristic bound over projection components. The Kauffman bracket breadth bound and $t=A^{-4}$ give the displayed bound. It is sharp for an unlink diagram with $n=0$, whose Jones polynomial has breadth of a Laurent polynomial $k-1$.
