We generalize our previous work on categorification of Kauffman bracket skein module of surfaces, by extending our homology to tangles in cylinders over surfaces, F x [0,1]. Our homology of 0-tangles and 1-tangles in D^3 coincides (up to…
A homological invariant of 3-manifolds is defined, using abelian Yang-Mills gauge theory. It is shown that the construction, in an appropriate sense, is functorial with respect to the families of 4-dimensional cobordisms. This construction…
We further study the symplectic Khovanov homology of Seidel and Smith and its generalization to even tangles. This homology theory is a conjectural geometric model for Khovanov homology. In this paper we uncover structures on symplectic…
The goal of this paper is to set up the general framework of higher-dimensional Heegaard Floer homology, define the contact class, and use it to give an obstruction to the Liouville fillability of a contact manifold and a sufficient…
Khovanov homology is a bigraded Z-module that categorifies the Jones polynomial. The support of Khovanov homology lies on a finite number of slope two lines with respect to the bigrading. The Khovanov width is essentially the largest…
We introduce a class of links strictly containing quasi-alternating links for which mod 2 reduced Khovanov homology is always thin. We compute the framed instanton homology for double branched covers of such links. Aligning certain dotted…
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 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…
We define a higher-dimensional analogue of symplectic Khovanov homology. Consider the standard Lefschetz fibration $p\colon W\to D\subset\mathbb{C}$ of a $2n$-dimensional Milnor fiber of the $A_{2\kappa-1}$ singularity. We represent a link…
We describe how to formulate Khovanov's functor-valued invariant of tangles in the language of bordered Heegaard Floer homology. We then give an alternate construction of Lawrence Roberts' Type D and Type A structures in Khovanov homology,…
We define a Khovanov-Lipshitz-Sarkar stable homotopy type for the homotopical Khovanov homology of links in the thickened torus after the authors introduced that in the case of higher genus surfaces in the previous paper of this one.
By considering a version of Khovanov homology incorporating both the Lee and $E(-1)$ differentials, we construct a $1$-parameter family of concordance homomorphisms similar to the Upsilon invariant from knot Floer homology. This invariant…
In the first few homological gradings, there is an isomorphism between the Khovanov homology of a link and the categorification of the chromatic polynomial of a graph related to the link. In this article, we show that the categorification…
Ozsvath and Szabo have established an algebraic relationship, in the form of a spectral sequence, between the reduced Khovanov homology of (the mirror of) a link L in S^3 and the Heegaard Floer homology of its double-branched cover. This…
In the present paper, we construct the Khovanov homology theory for virtual links. Besides the direct approach with Z_{2} coefficients we also describe the Khovanov homology for framed links and the Khovanov homology using ``double cover''.…
In this note, we prove the existence of a tri-graded Khovanov-type bicomplex (Theorem 1.2). The graded Euler characteristic of the total complex associated with this bicomplex is the colored Jones polynomial of a link. The first grading of…
We construct absolute and relative versions of Hamiltonian Floer homology algebras for strongly semi-positive compact symplectic manifolds with convex boundary, where the ring structures are given by the appropriate versions of the…
In the cabling procedure for HOMFLY polynomials colored HOMFLY polynomials of a knot are obtained from ordinary HOMFLY of the cabled knot with extra twists added. Thus colored polynomials can be seen as relation between HOMFLYs of cabled…
Khovanov homology is a powerful link invariant: a categorification of the Jones polynomial that enjoys a rich and beautiful algebraic structure. This homology theory has been extensively studied and it has become an ubiquitous topic in…
We define a variation of Khovanov homology with an explicit description in terms of the spanning trees of a link projection. We prove that this new theory is a link invariant and describe some of its properties. Finally, we provide some the…
