More concordance homomorphisms from knot Floer homology

Geometric Topology 2022-01-14 v2

Abstract

We define an infinite family of linearly independent, integer-valued smooth concordance homomorphisms. Our homomorphisms are explicitly computable and rely on local equivalence classes of knot Floer complexes over the ring F[U,V]/(UV=0)\mathbb{F}[U, V]/(UV=0). We compare our invariants to other concordance homomorphisms coming from knot Floer homology, and discuss applications to topologically slice knots, concordance genus, and concordance unknotting number.
