We define a wall-crossing morphism for Khovanov-Rozansky homology; that is, a map between the KR homology of knots related by a crossing change. Using this map, we extend KR homology to an invariant of singular knots categorifying the…
This is the first of four articles studying some slight generalisations H(n,m) of Khovanov's diagram algebra, as well as quasi-hereditary covers K(n,m) of these algebras in the sense of Rouquier, and certain infinite dimensional limiting…
We give a set of foundations for cellular $E_k$-algebras which are especially convenient for applications to homological stability. We provide conceptual and computational tools in this setting, such as filtrations, a homology theory for…
We define a deformation of the triply graded Khovanov-Rozansky homology of a link $L$ depending on a choice of parameters $y_c$ for each component of $L$, which satisfies link-splitting properties similar to the Batson-Seed invariant.…
Using quantum skew-Howe duality, we study the category $\operatorname{Rep}(\mathfrak{gl}(m|n))$ of tensor products of exterior powers of the standard representation of $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}(m|n))$, and prove that it is equivalent to a category…
We discuss a new perspective on Khovanov homology, using categorifications of tensor products. While in many ways more technically demanding than Khovanov's approach (and its extension by Bar-Natan), this has distinct advantage of directly…
We determine the algebraic structure underlying the geometric complex associated to a link in Bar-Natan's geometric formalism of Khovanov's link homology theory (n=2). We find an isomorphism of complexes which reduces the complex to one in…
The algebra of truncated polynomials A_m=Z[x]/(x^m) plays an important role in the theory of Khovanov and Khovanov-Rozansky homology of links. We have demonstrated that Hochschild homology is closely related to Khovanov homology via…
This paper constructs an explicit homogeneous cellular basis for the cyclotomic Khovanov--Lauda--Rouquier algebras of type $A$.
In this paper, for each graph $G$, we def\mbox{}ine a chain complex of graded modules over the ring of polynomials, whose graded Euler characteristic is equal to the chromatic polynomial of $G$. Furthermore, we def\mbox{}ine a chain complex…
We show that there is an associative algebra $\widetilde{H}_n$ such that, over a base ring $R$ of characteristic 2, Khovanov's arc algebra $H_n$ is isomorphic to the algebra $\widetilde{H}_n[x]/(x^2)$. We also show a similar result for…
We put a new spin on Khovanov--Rozansky homology. That is, we equip $\Lambda^n$-colored $\mathfrak{sl}_{2n}$ Khovanov--Rozansky homology with an involution whose $\pm 1$-eigenspaces are link invariants. When $n=1,2,3$ (and assuming…
We use Khovanov-Rozansky gl(N) link homology to define invariants of oriented smooth 4-manifolds, as skein modules constructed from certain 4-categories with well-behaved duals. The technical heart of this construction is a proof of the…
We introduce equivariant $\mathfrak{gl}_N$ homology for links in the thickened annulus via foam evaluation.
We establish a bridge between spectral clustering and Gromov-Wasserstein Learning (GWL), a recent optimal transport-based approach to graph partitioning. This connection both explains and improves upon the state-of-the-art performance of…
This paper realises the Khovanov homology of a link in the 3-sphere as a Lagrangian Floer cohomology group, establishing a conjecture of Seidel and the second author. The starting point is the previously established formality theorem for…
We construct an explicit isomorphism between blocks of cyclotomic Hecke algebras and (sign-modified) Khovanov-Lauda algebras in type A. These isomorphisms connect the categorification conjecture of Khovanov and Lauda to Ariki's…
We examine the theory of connective algebraic K-theory, CK, defined by taking the -1 connective cover of algebraic K-theory with respect to Voevodsky's slice tower in the motivic stable homotopy category. We extend CK to a bi-graded…
Weighted KLRW algebras are diagram algebras generalizing KLR algebras. This paper undertakes a systematic study of these algebras culminating in the construction of homogeneous affine cellular bases in affine types A and C, which…
We construct an explicit isomorphism between the generalised Khovanov arc algebras of type D and the basic algebras of the anti-spherical Hecke category associated to the maximal parabolic subgroup $W (A_{n-1})$ of $W (Dn)$. This…
