We investigate the filtered theory corresponding to the universal sl(2) foam cohomology $H_{a,h}$ for links, where a and h are complex numbers. We show that there is a spectral sequence converging to $H_{a,h}$ which is invariant under the…
We extend Lee's result on sl(2) Khovanov cohomology of a link L to the general sl(n) case: a filtered chain complex C(L) whose spectral sequence E_2 term equals Khovanov cohomology is exhibited. We also compute C(L)'s cohomology: it depends…
This article is a standalone introduction to sutured Floer homology for graduate students in geometry and topology. It is divided into three parts. The first part is an introductory level exposition of Lagrangian Floer homology. The second…
In general, Lagrangian Floer homology - if well-defined - is not isomorphic to singular homology. For arbitrary closed Lagrangian submanifolds a local version of Floer homology is defined in [Flo89, Oh96] which is isomorphic to singular…
For each positive integer n, Khovanov and Rozansky constructed an invariant of links in the form of a doubly-graded cohomology theory whose Euler characteristic is the sl(n) link polynomial. We use Lagrangian Floer cohomology on some…
This is a companion paper to earlier work of the authors, which interprets the Heegaard Floer homology for a manifold with torus boundary in terms of immersed curves in a punctured torus. We prove a variety of properties of this invariant,…
In this paper we extend the results of \cite{Plumbing} to calculate Ozsv\'ath-Szab\'o Floer homology group HF+ for a class of negative-semidefinite plumbings with b_1 = 1.
Given a knot K in S^3, Seidel and Smith described in arXiv:1002.2648v3 a graded cohomology group Kh_{symp,inv}(K), a variant of their symplectic Khovanov cohomology group. They also constructed a spectral sequence converging to the Heegaard…
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 construct connections on $S^1$-equivariant Hamiltonian Floer cohomology, which differentiate with respect to certain formal parameters.
We introduce the notion of a strong L-space, a closed, oriented rational homology 3-sphere whose Heegaard Floer homology can be determined at the chain level. We prove that the fundamental group of a strong L-space is not left-orderable.…
We show that every 3--manifold admits a Heegaard diagram in which a truncated version of Heegaard Floer homology (when the holomorpic disks pass through the basepoints at most once) can be computed combinatorially.
We study possible configurations of singular points occuring on general algebraic curves in $\mathbb{C}P^2$ via Floer theory. To achieve this, we describe a general formula for the $H_{1}$-action on the knot Floer complex of the…
Using derived categories of equivariant coherent sheaves, we construct a categorification of the tangle calculus associated to sl(2) and its standard representation. Our construction is related to that of Seidel-Smith by homological mirror…
We compute the Heegaard Floer homology of an oriented 3-manifold obtained by a negative rational surgery along an arbitrary algebraic knot.
Given a torus bundle $Y$ over the circle and a cohomology class $[\omega]\in H^2(Y;\mathbb{Z})$ which evaluates nontrivially on the fiber, we compute the Heegaard Floer homology of $Y$ with twisted coefficients in the universal Novikov…
In a previous paper, V\'ertesi and the first author used grid-like Heegaard diagrams to define tangle Floer homology, which associates to a tangle $T$ a differential graded bimodule $\widetilde{\mathrm{CT}} (T)$. If $L$ is obtained by…
We modify our previous construction of link homology in order to include a natural duality functor $\mathfrak{F}$. To a link $L$ we associate a triply-graded module $HXY(L)$ over the graded polynomial ring…
In this paper we study the relation between two diagrammatic representations of links in lens spaces: the disk diagram and the grid diagram and we find how to pass from one to the other. We also investigate whether the HOMFLY-PT invariant…
Let $G$ be a group with a finite balanced presentation $P$. We associate a Heegaard Floer homology group $\widehat{HF}_P(G)$ with the pair $(G,P)$ based on some extra choices and technical assumptions. We show that $\widehat{HF}_P(G)$ is…
