Some nontrivial examples of the Baldwin-Ozsváth-Szabó twisted spectral sequence and Heegaard-Floer homology of branched double covers (Q302289)

Baldwin-Ozsváth-Szabó (BOS) cohomology is an invariant of oriented links defined from a link diagram introduced by \textit{J. Baldwin}, \textit{P. Ozsváth} and \textit{Z. Szabó} [``Heegaard Floer homology of double-covers, Kauffman states, and Novikov rings'', preprint]. For a link diagram, make the black graph from the checkerboard coloring. The BOS cochain complex is formed from all spanning trees of the black graph. As the authors comment, the calculation of BOS cohomology is extraordinarily difficult. However, in the present paper under review, the authors give explicit calculations of BOS cohomology for some links. The first one is the knot \(8_{19}\), which is the \((3,4)\)-torus knot, and an infinite sequence starting from \(8_{19}\) is examined.NEWLINENEWLINEThe invariance of BOS cohomology has also been directly proved by \textit{D. Kriz} and \textit{I. Kriz} [Adv. Math. 255, 414--454 (2014; Zbl 1309.57009)].
