For an m-component integral framed surgery link, normalize its full colored bracket by the displayed expression, where σ(L) is the signature of its linking matrix. The Kirby color handle-slide identity handles slides; p+​p−​=D2 cancels disjoint plus- or minus-one-framed unknots. Kirby calculus therefore makes this an oriented 3-manifold invariant. This convention has τr​(S3)=1.
