Khovanov homology for alternating tangles

D Bar-Natan, H Burgos-Soto - Journal of Knot Theory and Its …, 2014 - World Scientific
We describe a" concentration on the diagonal" condition on the Khovanov complex of
tangles, show that this condition is satisfied by the Khovanov complex of the single crossing …

Torsion in Khovanov homology of homologically thin knots

AN Shumakovitch - Journal of Knot Theory and Its Ramifications, 2021 - World Scientific
We prove that every ℤ 2 H-thin link has no 2 k-torsion for k> 1 in its Khovanov homology.
Together with previous results by Lee [The support of the Khovanov's invariants for …

Knot invariants arising from homological operations on Khovanov homology

KK Putyra, AN Shumakovitch - Journal of Knot Theory and Its …, 2016 - World Scientific
We construct an algebra of nontrivial homological operations on Khovanov homology with
coefficients in ℤ 2 generated by two Bockstein operations. We use the unified Khovanov …

A spanning tree model for Khovanov homology

S Wehrli - Journal of Knot Theory and Its Ramifications, 2008 - World Scientific
We show that the Khovanov complex of a connected link diagram D retracts to a subcomplex
whose generators are in 2: 1 correspondence with the spanning trees of the" black graph" of …

Planar algebras and the decategorification of bordered Khovanov homology

LP Roberts - Journal of Knot Theory and Its Ramifications, 2017 - World Scientific
We give a simple, combinatorial construction of a unital, spherical, non-degenerate*-planar
algebra over the ring ℤ [q 1/2, q− 1/2]. This planar algebra is similar in spirit to the Temperley …

Five lectures on Khovanov homology

P Turner - Journal of Knot Theory and Its Ramifications, 2017 - World Scientific
These five lectures—written for a summer school in 2006—provide an introduction to
Khovanov homology covering the basic definitions, important properties, a number of …

On the Khovanov and knot Floer homologies of quasi-alternating links

C Manolescu, P Ozsváth - arXiv preprint arXiv:0708.3249, 2007 - arxiv.org
Quasi-alternating links are a natural generalization of alternating links. In this paper, we
show that quasi-alternating links are" homologically thin" for both Khovanov homology and …
