In this paper, we define real link Floer homology for strongly invertible and doubly periodic links in closed real $3$-manifolds with connected fixed sets, which generalizes real Heegaard Floer homology and real sutured Heegaard Floer…
We define a grid presentation for singular links i.e. links with a finite number of rigid transverse double points. Then we use it to generalize link Floer homology to singular links. Besides the consistency of its definition, we prove that…
We generalize the class of split graphs to the directed case and show that these split digraphs can be identified from their degree sequences. The first degree sequence characterization is an extension of the concept of splittance to…
In this paper we define the 1,2-coloured HOMFLY-PT link homology and prove that it is a link invariant. We conjecture that this homology categorifies the coloured HOMFLY-PT polynomial for links whose components are labelled 1 or 2.
We provide a finite dimensional categorification of the symmetric evaluation of $\mathfrak{sl}_N$-webs using foam technology. As an output we obtain a symmetric link homology theory categorifying the link invariant associated to symmetric…
Given a link $L$, Dowlin constructed a filtered complex inducing a spectral sequence with $E_2$-page isomorphic to the Khovanov homology $\overline{Kh}(L)$ and $E_\infty$-page isomorphic to the knot Floer homology $\widehat{HFK}(m(L))$ of…
It is shown that, if a link $\tilde{L}\subset S^3$ is $p^k$-periodic with $p$ prime and $k\ge 1$, and $L$ is the quotient link, then the groups of $\tilde{L}$ and $L$ can be related by counting homomorphisms to any finite group $\Gamma$…
We use categorical annular evaluation to give a uniform construction of both $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ and HOMFLYPT Khovanov-Rozansky link homology, as well as annular versions of these theories. Variations on our construction yield…
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…
In this paper we use 3-manifold techniques to illuminate the structure of the string link monoid. In particular, we give a prime decomposition theorem for string links on two components as well as give necessary conditions for string links…
We use foams to give a topological construction of a rational link homology categorifying the slN link invariant, for N>3. To evaluate closed foams we use the Kapustin-Li formula adapted to foams by Khovanov and Rozansky. We show that for…
We provide a formula for the splitting of a congruence subgroup of SL$(3,\mathbb{R})$ into the double cover of SL$(3,\mathbb{R})$ in terms of Pl\"{u}cker coordinates and prove that the splitting satisfies a twisted multiplicativity. The…
A link is called $\chi-$slice if it bounds a smooth properly embedded surface in the 4-ball with no closed components and Euler characteristic 1. If a link has a single component, then it is $\chi-$slice if and only if it is slice. One…
It is well known how the linking number and framing can be extracted from the degree 1 part of the (framed) Kontsevich integral. This note gives a general formula expressing any product of powers of these two invariants as combination of…
We classify isomorphism and chain homotopy equivalence classes of finitely generated $\mathbb{Z} \oplus \mathbb{Z}$ graded free chain complexes over $\frac{\mathbb{F}[U,V]}{(UV)}$. As a corollary, we establish that every link Floer complex…
Ozsv\'ath and Szab\'o conjectured that knot Floer homology detects fibred links. We will verify this conjecture for closed 3-braids, by classifying fibred closed 3-braids. In particular, given a nontrivial closed 3-braid, either it is…
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…
There are characteristic classes that are the obstructions to the vanishing of the differentials in the Lyndon-Hochischild-Serre spectral sequence of an extension of an integral lattice L by a group G. These characteristic classes exist in…
We construct an action of a polynomial ring on the colored sl(2) link homology of Cooper-Krushkal, over which this homology is finitely generated. We define a new, related link homology which is finite dimensional, extends to tangles, and…
The linking number of an oriented two-component link is an invariant indicating how intertwined the two components are. Tuler proved that the linking number of a two-component rational $\frac{p}{q}$-link is $$\sum^{\frac{|p|}{2}}_{k=1}…
