Abstract: We consider a deformation of the Robert-Wagner foam evaluation formula, with an eye toward a relation to formal groups. Integrality of the deformed evaluation is established, giving rise to state spaces for planar GL(N) MOY graphs (Murakami-Ohtsuki-Yamada graphs). Skein relations for the deformation are worked out in details in the GL(2) case. These skein relations deform GL(2) foam relations of Beliakova, Hogancamp, Putyra and Wehrli. We establish the Reidemeister move invariance of the resulting chain complexes assigned to link diagrams, giving us a link homology theory.
