Using the symplectic geometry of certain manifolds which appear naturally in Lie theory, we define an invariant which assigns a graded abelian group to an oriented link. The relevant manifolds are transverse slices to certain nilpotent…

We generalize the recently discovered planar decomposition (Kauffman bracket) for the HOMFLY polynomials of bipartite knot/link diagrams to (anti)symmetrically colored HOMFLY polynomials. Cabling destroys planarity, but it is restored after…

Let P be a closed smooth (4j-2)-connected 8j-manifold. We complete Wilkens' classification of the manifolds P for j = 1,2 and give an alternative proof to Wall's classification of the manifolds for j > 2. The Hopf-invariant-one dimensions…

We present a novel symmetry of the colored HOMFLY polynomial. It relates pairs of polynomials colored by different representations at specific values of $N$ and generalizes the previously known "tug-the-hook" symmetry of the colored…

Let L be a link in an thickened annulus. We specify the embedding of this annulus in the three sphere, and consider its complement thought of as the axis to L. In the right circumstances this axis lifts to a null-homologous knot in the…

A well-known conjecture states that for any $l$-component link $L$ in $S^3$, the rank of the knot Floer homology of $L$ (over any field) is less than or equal to $2^{l-1}$ times the rank of the reduced Khovanov homology of $L$. In this…

Tied links and the tied braid monoid were introduced recently by the authors and used to define new invariants for classical links. Here, we give a version purely algebraic-combinatoric of tied links. With this new version we prove that the…

The slope is an isotopy invariant of colored links with a distinguished component, initially introduced by the authors to describe an extra correction term in the computation of the signature of the splice. It appeared to be closely related…

We incorporate quandle cocycle information into the quandle coloring quivers we defined in arXiv:1807.10465 to define weighted directed graph-valued invariants of oriented links we call \textit{quandle cocycle quivers}. This construction…

We describe a simple homological test for obstructions to graph colorings. The main idea is to combine the framework of Hom-complexes with the following general fact: an arbitrary Z_2-space has nontrivial homology with Z_2-coefficients in…

We prove that Khovanov homology is an invariant of links in unparametrized $\mathbb{RP}^3$'s, i.e., oriented $3$-manifolds diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{RP}^3$. Along the way, we establish the functoriality of Khovanov homology for link…

In the first part of this paper, we constructed a filtered U(r)-equivariant stable homotopy type called the spectrum of strict broken symmetries sB(L) of links L given by closing a braid with r strands. Evaluating this filtered spectrum on…

With the help of the evolution method we calculate all HOMFLY polynomials in all symmetric representations [r] for a huge family of (generalized) pretzel links, which are made from g+1 two strand braids, parallel or antiparallel, and depend…

The d-invariant of an integral, positive definite lattice L records the minimal norm of a characteristic covector in each equivalence class mod 2L. We prove that the 2-isomorphism type of a connected graph is determined by the d-invariant…

We compare eight versions of finite-dimensional categorifications of the colored Jones polynomial and show that they yield isomorphic results over a field of characteristic zero. As an application, we verify a physics-motivated conjectural…

We construct an endomorphism of the Khovanov invariant to prove H-thinness and pairing phenomena of the invariants for alternating links. As a consequence, it follows that the Khovanov invariant of an oriented nonsplit alternating link is…

A link homology is defined that is independent of link diagrams. This diagramless homology is closely related to Khovanov homology.

In 2019, Schneidermann and Teicher showed that the Kirk invariant classifies two-component link maps of two-spheres in the four-sphere up to link homotopy. In this paper, we construct a three-component link homotopy invariant. We construct…

We introduce the notion of mc-biquandles, algebraic structures which have possibly distinct biquandle operations at single-component and multi-component crossings. These structures provide computable homset invariants for classical and…

Explicit answer is given for the HOMFLY polynomial of the figure eight knot $4_1$ in arbitrary symmetric representation R=[p]. It generalizes the old answers for p=1 and 2 and the recently derived results for p=3,4, which are fully…
