In [3] the authors (M. Borodzik and S. Friedl, Unknotting number and classical invariants (preprint 2012)) associated to a knot K ⊂ S3 an invariant nR(K), which is defined using the Blanchfield form and which gives a lower bound on the unknotting number. In this paper, we express nR(K) in terms of the Levine-Tristram signatures and nullities of K. We also show in the proof that the Blanchfield form for any knot K is diagonalisable over R[t±1].
