Abstract
A spatial refinement of Bar-Natan homology is given, that is, for any link diagram we construct a CW-spectrum whose reduced cellular cochain complex gives the Bar-Natan complex of . The stable homotopy type of is a link invariant and is described as the wedge sum of the canonical cells. We conjecture that the quantum filtration of Bar-Natan homology also lifts to the spatial level, and that it leads us to a cohomotopical refinement of the -invariant.
