The sl_n foam 2-category: a combinatorial formulation of Khovanov-Rozansky homology via categorical skew Howe duality
From MaRDI portal
Publication:317356
Abstract: We give a purely combinatorial construction of colored link homology. The invariant takes values in a 2-category where 2-morphisms are given by foams, singular cobordisms between webs; applying a (TQFT-like) representable functor recovers (colored) Khovanov-Rozansky homology. Novel features of the theory include the introduction of `enhanced' foam facets which fix sign issues associated with the original matrix factorization formulation and the use of skew Howe duality to show that (enhanced) closed foams can be evaluated in a completely combinatorial manner. The latter answers a question posed in math.GT/0708.2228.
