Khovanov homology is a skew Howe 2-representation of categorified quantum \(\mathfrak{sl}_m\) (Q894949): Difference between revisions

This paper is a study of Khovanov homology. The authors provide a direct construction of foam based \(\mathfrak{sl}(n)\) link homology theories in terms of categorified quantum groups. Then they use Cautis-Rozansky categorified clasps to obtain categorified projectors lifting Jones-Wenzl idempotents. The \(\mathfrak{sl}(2)\) case is studied in details and the importance of the modified class of foams introduced by Christian Blanchet is emphasized.
