Khovanov homology is an invariant of knots in  . In its original form,
it is a "homological version of the Jones polynomial"; Khovanov and
Rozansky have generalized it to other knot polynomials, including the
HOMFLY polynomial.
The first talk will be an introduction to Khovanov homology and its generalizations. |
