Combinatorial knot Floer homology and cyclic branched covers

Abstract: Using a Heegaard diagram for the pullback of a knot

K s u b s e t S^{3}

in its cyclic branched cover

S i g m a_{m} (K)

obtained from a grid diagram for

K

, we give a combinatorial proof for the invariance of the associated combinatorial knot Floer homology over

m a t h b b Z

.
