The Bar-Natan Skein Module of the Solid Torus and the Homology of (n,n) Springer Varieties

چکیده
This paper establishes an isomorphism between the Bar-Natan skein module of the solid torus with a particular boundary curve system and the homology of the (n, n) Springer variety. The results build on Khovanov’s work with crossingless matchings and the cohomology of the (n, n) Springer variety. We also give a formula for comultiplication in the Bar-Natan skein module for this specific three-manifold and boundary curve system.

On the Kauffman Skein Modules
Abstract. Let k be a subring of the field of rational functions in α, s which contains α, s. Let M be a compact oriented 3-manifold, and let K(M) denote the Kauffman skein module of M over k. Then K(M) is the free k-module generated by isotopy classes of framed links in M modulo the Kauffman skein relations. In the case of k = Q(α, s), the field of rational functions in α, s, we give a basis fo...
متن کاملThe Fourth Skein Module and the Montesinos-nakanishi Conjecture for 3-algebraic Links
We study the concept of the fourth skein module of 3-manifolds, that is a skein module based on the skein relation b0L0 + b1L1 + b2L2 + b3L3 = 0 and a framing relation L = aL (a, b0, b3 invertible). We give necessary conditions for trivial links to be linearly independent in the module. We investigate the behavior of elements of the skein module under the n-move and compute the values for (2, n...
متن کاملThe Kauffman Polynomials of Generalized Hopf Links
Following the recent work by Chan [4] and Morton and Hadji [7] on the Homflypt polynomials of some generalized Hopf links, we investigate the Kauffman polynomials of generalized Hopf links. By studying the Kauffman skein module of the solid torus S × D, we establish a similar skein map on the Kauffman skein module of S × D which has distinct eigenvalues. Furthermore we are able to calculate the...
متن کاملOn the Homflypt Skein Module Of
Let k be a subring of the field of rational functions in x, v, s which contains x, v, s. If M is an oriented 3-manifold, let S(M) denote the Homflypt skein module of M over k. This is the free k-module generated by isotopy classes of framed oriented links in M quotiented by the Homflypt skein relations: (1) xL+ − xL− = (s − s)L0; (2) L with a positive twist = (xv)L; (3) L ⊔ O = ( v−v −1 s−s−1 )...
متن کاملTOPOLOGICAL STEPS TOWARD THE HOMFLYPT SKEIN MODULE OF THE LENS SPACES L(p, 1) VIA BRAIDS
In this paper we work toward the Homflypt skein module of the lens spaces L(p, 1), S(L(p, 1)), using braids. In particular, we establish the connection between S(ST), the Homflypt skein module of the solid torus ST, and S(L(p, 1)) and arrive at an infinite system, whose solution corresponds to the computation of S(L(p,1)). We start from the Lambropoulou invariant X for knots and links in ST, th...
