Homology theories in knot theory (Khovanov, Heegaard-Floer, etc.) (57K18) Floer homology (57R58)

Abstract: In a previous paper, V'ertesi and the first author used grid-like Heegaard diagrams to define tangle Floer homology, which associates to a tangle $T$ a differential graded bimodule $widetildemathrmCT(T)$. If $L$ is obtained by gluing together $T_1,dotsc,T_m$, then the knot Floer homology $hatmathrmHFK(L)$ of $L$ can be recovered from $widetildemathrmCT(T_1),dotsc,widetildemathrmCT(T_m)$. In the present paper, we prove combinatorially that tangle Floer homology satisfies unoriented and oriented skein relations, generalizing the skein exact triangles for knot Floer homology.

Review text

The paper under review combinatorially proves skein relations for oriented and unoriented tangle Floer homology as defined by Vértesi and the first-named author [\textit{I. Petkova} and \textit{V. Vértesi}, Geom. Topol. 20, No. 6, 3219--3332 (2016; Zbl 1366.57005)]. These are conjectured to recover known skein exact triangles for oriented and unoriented knot Floer homologies.
