Calculating Bar-natan’s Characteristic Two Khovanov Homology
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate Bar-Natan’s characteristic two Khovanov link homology theory studying both the filtered and bi-graded theories. The filtered theory is computed explicitly and the bi-graded theory analysed by setting up a family of spectral sequences. The E2-pages can be described in terms of groups arising from the action of a certain endomorphism on F2-Khovanov homology. Some simple consequences are discussed.

Open-closed TQFTs extend Khovanov homology from links to tangles
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 an oriented tangle, we construct a chain complex whose homology is invariant under Reidemeister moves. The terms of this chain complex are modules of a suita...
متن کاملBar-natan’s Khovanov Homology for Coloured Links
Using Bar-Natan’s Khovanov homology we define a homology theory for links whose components are labelled by irreducible representations of Uq(sl2). We then compute this explicitly.
متن کاملKhovanov-jacobsson Numbers and Invariants of Surface-knots Derived from Bar-natan’s Theory
Khovanov introduced a cohomology theory for oriented classical links whose graded Euler characteristic is the Jones polynomial. Since Khovanov’s theory is functorial for link cobordisms between classical links, we obtain an invariant of a surface-knot, called the Khovanov-Jacobsson number, by considering the surface-knot as a link cobordism between empty links. In this paper, we define an invar...
متن کاملOn Transverse Invariants from Khovanov Homology
In [Pla06], O. Plamenevskaya associated to each transverse knot K an element of the Khovanov homology of K. In this paper, we give two refinements of Plamenevskaya’s invariant, one valued in Bar-Natan’s deformation (from [BN05]) of the Khovanov complex and another as a cohomotopy element of the Khovanov spectrum (from [LSa]). We show that the first of these refinements is invariant under negati...
متن کاملLink Homology and Unoriented Topological Quantum Field Theory
We investigate Khovanov homology of stable equivalence classes of link diagrams on oriented surfaces. We apply Bar-Natan’s geometric formalism to this setting and using unoriented 1+1-dimensional topological quantum field theories we define new link homology theories for stable equivalences classes.
