Alexander polynomial arises in the leading term of a semi-classical Melvin-Morton-Rozansky expansion of colored knot polynomials. In this work, following the opposite direction, we propose how to reconstruct colored HOMFLY-PT polynomials,…
In this paper, we study the properties of the colored HOMFLY polynomials via HOMFLY skein theory. We prove some limit behaviors and symmetries of the colored HOMFLY polynomial predicted in some physicists' recent works.
Quantum invariants like the colored Jones polynomial are algebraic in nature but are conjectured to detect important information about the geometry of links. In this thesis we explore these connections using an enhanced version of the RT…
We first study superpolynomial associated to triply-graded reduced colored HOMFLY-PT homology. We propose conjectures of congruent relations and cyclotomic expansion for it. We prove conjecture of $N=1$ for torus knot case, through which we…
Besides offering a friendly introduction to knot homologies and quantum curves, the goal of these lectures is to review some of the concrete predictions that follow from the physical interpretation of knot homologies. In particular, this…
We study the structure of triply graded Khovanov-Rozansky homology using both the data recently computed by Nakagane and Sano for knots up to 11 crossings, and the $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ action defined by the second author, Hogancamp and…
We construct analogs of Khovanov-Jacobsson classes and the Rasmussen invariant for links in the boundary of any smooth oriented 4-manifold. The main tools are skein lasagna modules based on equivariant and deformed versions of…
Khovanov homology is a categorification of the Jones polynomial, so it may be seen as a kind of quantum invariant of knots and links. Although polynomial quantum invariants are deeply involved with Vassiliev (aka. finite type) invariants,…
We employ the sl(2) foam cohomology to define a cohomology theory for oriented framed tangles whose components are labelled by irreducible representations of U_q(sl(2)). We show that the corresponding colored invariants of tangles can be…
A colored link, as defined by Francesca Aicardi, is an oriented classical link together with a coloration, which is a function defined on the set of link components and whose image is a finite set of colors. An oriented classical link can…
We study the skein relation that governs the HOMFLYPT invariant of links colored by one-column Young diagrams. Our main result is a categorification of this colored skein relation. This takes the form of a homotopy equivalence between two…
In this short note, we prove the cyclotomic expansion formula for the colored HOMFLY-PT invariant of double twist knots, it confirms the cyclotomic expansion conjecture for $SU(N)$-invariants proposed in \cite{CLZ}.
Hilbert scheme topological invariants of plane curve singularities are identified to framed threefold stable pair invariants. As a result, the conjecture of Oblomkov and Shende on HOMFLY polynomials of links of plane curve singularities is…
The Links-Quivers Correspondence predicts that all the symmetric (or antisymmetric) colored HOMFLY-PT polynomials of a link can be recovered from a finite amount of data (a quiver) associated to the link. We give a new geometric proof of…
We present a comprehensive classification of invariants of knots and links associated with irreducible representations of \uqslN{}, when the parameter of quantization $q$ is a root of unity. We demonstrate that, besides the standard…
Given a planar curve singularity, we prove a conjecture of Oblomkov-Shende, relating the geometry of its Hilbert scheme of points to the HOMFLY polynomial of the associated algebraic link. More generally, we prove an extension of this…
The colored HOMLFY polynomial is an important knot invariant depending on two variables $a$ and $q$. We give bounds on the degree in both $a$ and $q$ generalizing Morton's bounds \cite{Mo86} for the ordinary HOMFLY polynomial. Our bounds…
We conjecture a closed-form expression of HOMFLY-PT invariants of double twist knots colored by rectangular Young diagrams where the twist is encoded in interpolation Macdonald polynomials. We also put forth a conjecture of cyclotomic…
This article introduces a natural extension of colouring numbers of knots, called colouring polynomials, and studies their relationship to Yang-Baxter invariants and quandle 2-cocycle invariants. For a knot K in the 3-sphere let \pi_K be…
We propose a generalized version of knots-quivers correspondence, where the quiver series variables specialize to arbitrary powers of the knot HOMFLY-PT polynomial series variable. We explicitely compute quivers for large classes of knots,…
