Abstract

In arXiv:2009.06498, a link invariant categorifying the Jones polynomial at a 2p2pth root of unity, where pp is an odd prime, was constructed. This categorification utilized an N=2N=2 specialization of a differential introduced by Cautis. Here we give a family of link homologies where the Cautis differential is specialized to a positive integer of the form N=kp+2N=kp+2. When kk is even, all these link homologies categorify the Jones polynomial evaluated at a 2p2pth root of unity, but they are non-isomorphic invariants.
