We define band maps in unoriented link Floer homology and show that they form an unoriented skein exact triangle. These band maps are similar to the band maps in equivariant Khovanov homology given by the Lee deformation. As a key tool, we…

We define sutured Heegaard diagrams for null-homologous knots in 3-manifolds. These diagrams are useful for computing the knot Floer homology at the top filtration level. As an application, we give a formula for the knot Floer homology of a…

We compute the Floer homology of mapping classes which do not have any pseudo-Anosov components in the sense of Thurston's theory of surface diffeomorphisms. The formula for the Floer homology is obtained from a topological separation of…

We derive symmetries and adjunction inequalities of the knot Floer homology groups which appear to be especially interesting for homologically essential knots. Furthermore, we obtain an adjunction inequality for cobordism maps in knot Floer…

Seidel-Smith and Hendricks used equivariant Floer cohomology to define some spectral sequences from symplectic Khovanov homology and Heegaard Floer homology. These spectral sequences give rise to Smith-type inequalities. Similar-looking…

We classify genus-two L-space knots in the Poincar\'e homology sphere. This leads to the second knot Floer homology detection result for a knot of genus at least two, and the first such result outside of $S^3$. The argument uses the theory…

Real Heegaard Floer homology is an invariant associated to a three-manifold equipped with an involution with nonempty fixed set of codimension two. We show that when the image of the fixed point set is nullhomologous in the quotient, the…

We study the behavior of $\mathrm{Pin}(2)$-monopole Floer homology under connected sums. After constructing a (partially defined) $\mathcal{A}_{\infty}$-module structure on the $\mathrm{Pin}(2)$-monopole Floer chain complex of a three…

We develop a family of deformations of the differential and of the pair-of-pants product on the Hamiltonian Floer complex of a symplectic manifold (M,\omega) which upon passing to homology yields ring isomorphisms with the big quantum…

Recently, Manolescu-Sarkar constructed a stable homotopy type for link Floer homology, which uses grid homology and accounts for all domains that do not pass through a specific square. In doing so, they produced an obstruction chain complex…

In a recent paper, the first author and his collaborator developed a method to compute an upper bound of the dimension of instanton Floer homology via Heegaard Diagrams of 3-manifolds. For a knot inside S3, we further develop an algorithm…

Given a Liouville manifold $M$, we introduce an invariant of $M$ that we call the Heegaard Floer symplectic cohomology $SH^*_\kappa(M)$ for any $\kappa \ge 1$ that coincides with the symplectic cohomology for $\kappa=1$. Writing $\hat{M}$…

We prove that the rank of knot Floer homology detects the Hopf links, and generalize this result further to classify the links of the second smallest knot Floer homology. We also prove a knot Floer homology analog of arXiv:1910.04246v1…

Consider an unknot $c$ in $S^3$ and a knot $K$ in ${S^3-N(c)}$. Twisting the knot $K$ along $c$, or equivalently applying $\frac{1}{m}$-surgery on $c$, produces a family of knots $\{K_m\}_{m \in \mathbb{Z}}$. We use bordered Floer homology…
