Abstract: Motivated by a possible connection between the $mathrmSU(N)$ instanton knot Floer homology of Kronheimer and Mrowka and $mathfraksl(N)$ Khovanov-Rozansky homology, Lobb and Zentner recently introduced a moduli problem associated to colourings of trivalent graphs of the kind considered by Murakami, Ohtsuki and Yamada in their state-sum interpretation of the quantum $mathfraksl(N)$ knot polynomial. For graphs with two colours, they showed this moduli space can be thought of as a representation variety, and that its Euler characteristic is equal to the $mathfraksl(N)$ polynomial of the graph evaluated at 1. We extend their results to graphs with arbitrary colourings by irreducible anti-symmetric representations of $mathfraksl(N)$.
