The purpose of this paper is to construct and study equivariant Khovanov homology - a version of Khovanov homology theory for periodic links. Since our construction works regardless of the characteristic of the coefficient ring it…

A periodic link, is link in $S^3$ with action of $\mathbb{Z}_p$ by rotation with $2\pi/p$ around a fixed unknot $U$. The equivariant Khovanov homology of periodic links has been studied in \cite{BP17}. We prove that the equivariant Khovanov…

We introduce extensions of Khovanov homology and the Lee and Bar-Natan spectral sequences for links in $ \mathbb{RP}^3 $. These extensions are distinct to those previously defined by Asaeda-Przytycki-Sikora (and Gabrov\v{s}ek's…

We introduce a refinement of Bar-Natan homology for involutive links, extending the work of Lobb-Watson and Sano. We construct a new suite of numerical invariants and derive bounds for the genus of equivariant cobordisms between strongly…

Using Bar-Natan's Khovanov homology we define a homology theory for coloured, oriented, framed links. We then compute this explicitly.

Lobb observed in [arXiv:1103.1412] that each equivariant sl(N) Khovanov-Rozansky homology over C[a] admits a standard decomposition of a simple form. In the present paper, we derive a formula for the corresponding Lee-Gornik spectral…

We study the relationship between Bar-Natan's perturbation in Khovanov homology and Szabo's geometric spectral sequence, and construct a link invariant that generalizes both into a common theory. We study a few properties of the new…

Given an $m$-periodic link $L\subset S^3$, we show that the Khovanov spectrum $\mathcal{X}_L$ constructed by Lipshitz and Sarkar admits a homology group action. We relate the Borel cohomology of $\mathcal{X}_L$ to the equivariant Khovanov…

By means of Rasmussen's formulation of Khovanov-Rozansky homology originally given over $\mathbb{Q}$ in arXiv:math/0607544, we compare different flavors of $\mathfrak{sl}(n)$ link homology with the link invariants obtained by Kitchloo in…

A spectral sequence is established, whose $E_{2}$ page is Bar-Natan's variant of Khovanov homology and which abuts to a deformation of instanton homology for knots and links. This spectral sequence arises as a specialization of a spectral…

This paper begins with a survey of some applications of Khovanov homology to low-dimensional topology, with an eye toward extending these results to $\mathfrak{sl}(n)$ homologies. We extend Levine and Zemke's ribbon concordance obstruction…

We define a family of formal Khovanov brackets of a colored link depending on two parameters. The isomorphism classes of these brackets are invariants of framed colored links. The Bar-Natan functors applied to these brackets produce…

We define a variant of Khovanov homology for links in thickened disks with multiple punctures. This theory is distinct from the one previously defined by Asaeda, Przytycki, and Sikora, but is related to it by a spectral sequence.…

We construct a new spectral sequence beginning at the Khovanov homology of a link and converging to the Khovanov homology of the disjoint union of its components. The page at which the sequence collapses gives a lower bound on the splitting…

Let $\Delta$ be a trivial knot in the three-sphere. For every finite cyclic group $G$ of odd order, we construct a $G$-equivariant Khovanov homology with coefficients in the filed $\F_{2}$. This homology is an invariant of links up to…

Khovanov homology of a link and chromatic graph homology are known to be isomorphic in a range of homological gradings that depend on the girth of a graph. We discuss patterns shared by these two homology theories. In particular, we improve…

We construct equivariant Khovanov spectra for periodic links, using the Burnside functor construction introduced by Lawson, Lipshitz, and Sarkar. By identifying the fixed-point sets, we obtain rank inequalities for odd and even Khovanov…

Asaeda-Przytycki-Sikora, Manturov, and Gabrov\v{s}ek extended Khovanov homology to links in $\mathbb{RP}^3$. We construct a Lee-type deformation of their theory, and use it to define an analogue of Rasmussen's s-invariant in this setting.…

This paper continues the study of periodic links started in \cite{Politarczyk2}. It contains a study of the equivariant analogues of the Jones polynomial, which can be obtained from the equivariant Khovanov homology. In this paper we…

We use the knot homology of Khovanov and Lee to construct link concordance invariants generalizing the Rasmussen $s$-invariant of knots. The relevant invariant for a link is a filtration on a vector space of dimension $2^{|L|}$. The basic…
