The purpose of this paper is to construct and study equivariant Khovanov homology - a version of Khovanov homology theory for periodic links. Since our construction works regardless of the characteristic of the coefficient ring it…
In this note, we construct invariant and coinvariant Morse chain complexes with integer coefficients for any compact effective orbifold. We show that the homologies of these two chain complexes are invariants of the orbifold. We conjecture…
Edge-homotopy and vertex-homotopy are equivalence relations on spatial graphs which are generalizations of Milnor's link-homotopy. We introduce some edge (resp. vertex)-homotopy invariants of spatial graphs by applying the Sato-Levine…
Knots naturally appear in continuous dynamical systems as flow periodic trajectories. However, discrete dynamical systems are also closely connected with the theory of knots and links. For example, for Pixton diffeomorphisms, the…
Naturally occurring diagrams in algebraic topology are commutative up to homotopy, but not on the nose. It was quickly realized that very little can be done with this information. Homotopy coherent category theory arose out of a desire to…
In this paper we construct an infinite family of homotopically rigid spaces. These examples are then used as building blocks to forge highly connected rational spaces with prescribed finite group of self-homotopy equivalences. They are also…
We use the Mackaay-Vaz universal $sl(3)$-link homology to deepen the study of $s$-invariants on Khovanov's link homology associated to $sl(3)$. Such $s$-invariants have already been studied by Lobb and Wu in characteristic 0 and we show how…
We classify the homogeneous finite-dimensional permutation structures, i.e., homogeneous structures in a language of finitely many linear orders, giving a nearly complete answer to a question of Cameron, and confirming the classification…
In the paper we prove that the primitive part of the Sinha homology spectral sequence E^2-term for the space of long knots is rationally isomorphic to the homotopy E^2-term. We also define natural graph-complexes computing the rational…
We show that for a gradable finite dimensional algebra the perfect complexes and bounded derived category cannot be distinguished by homotopy invariants.
We prove that the group of homotopy classes of relative homotopy automorphisms of a simply connected finite CW-complex is finitely presented and that the rationalization map from this group to its rational analogue has a finite kernel.
We employ a solution of the Yang-Baxter equation to construct invariants for knot-like objects. Specifically, we consider a Yang-Baxter state model for the sl(n) polynomial of classical links and extend it to oriented singular links and…
The theory of signature invariants of links in rational homology spheres is applied to covering links of homology boundary links. From patterns and Seifert matrices of homology boundary links, an explicit formula is derived to compute…
The superform construction of supersymmetric invariants, which consists of integrating the top component of a closed superform over spacetime, is reviewed. The cohomological methods necessary for the analysis of closed superforms are…
In this paper, we discuss a proof of the isotopy invariance of a parametrized Khovanov link homology including categorifications of the Jones polynomial and the Kauffman bracket polynomial though it is a known fact. In order to present a…
We use a special kind of 2-dimensional extended Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs), so-called open-closed TQFTs, in order to extend Khovanov homology from links to arbitrary tangles, not necessarily even. For every plane diagram of…
We compute many dimensions of spaces of finite type invariants of virtual knots (of several kinds) and the dimensions of the corresponding spaces of "weight systems", finding everything to be in agreement with the conjecture that "every…
We prove the existence of lattice isomorphic line arrangements having $\pi_1$-equivalent or homotopy-equivalent complements and non homeomorphic embeddings in the complex projective plane. We also provide two explicit examples, one is…
We introduce several homotopy equivalence relations for proper holomorphic mappings between balls. We provide examples showing that the degree of a rational proper mapping between balls (in positive codimension) is not a homotopy invariant.…
Let M be a closed, oriented, n -manifold, and LM its free loop space. Chas and Sullivan defined a commutative algebra structure in the homology of LM, and a Lie algebra structure in its equivariant homology. These structures are known as…
