Transverse link invariants from the deformations of Khovanov sl₃-homology
\textit{O. Plamenevskaya} introduced in [Math. Res. Lett. 13, No. 4, 571--586 (2006; Zbl 1143.57006)] an invariant of transverse links. The invariant is a distinguished element in Khovanov homology of the underlying link. Building upon the ideas of Plamenevskaya, other authors have constructed invariants of transverse links valued in Lee's deformation of Khovanov homology, see [\textit{R. Lipshitz} et al., Quantum Topol. 6, No. 3, 475--513 (2015; Zbl 1327.57010); \textit{C. Collari}, J. Knot Theory Ramifications 28, No. 1, Article ID 1950012, 37 p. (2019; Zbl 1409.57004)], and valued in Khovanov-Rozansky \(\mathfrak{sl}_N\)-homology, for \(N \geq 3\), [\textit{H. Wu}, Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 360, No. 7, 3365--3389 (2008; Zbl 1152.57008)]. Deformations of Khovanov-Rozansky \(\mathfrak{sl}_N\)-homology were constructed in [\textit{M. Mackaay} and \textit{P. Vaz}, Algebr. Geom. Topol. 7, 1135--1169 (2007; Zbl 1170.57011); \textit{D. E. V. Rose} and \textit{P. Wedrich}, Geom. Topol. 20, No. 6, 3431--3517 (2016; Zbl 1420.57044)]. These deformed \(\mathfrak{sl}_N\)-homology theories are parametrized by monic polynomials of degree \(N\). The goal of the paper under review is to construct an invariant of transverse links valued in deformed Khovanov-Rozansky \(\mathfrak{sl}_3\)-homology. Additionally, the author studies the question of vanishing of the deformed \(\mathfrak{sl}_3\)-invariant. The answer to this question is expressed in terms of multiplicity of the roots of the polynomial corresponding to the deformation and in terms of vanishing of Plamenevskaya's invariant and Wu's invariant. Moreover, if the transverse invariant is nontrivial, the author obtains certain Bennequin-type inequalities which relate the self-linking number with concordance invariants of Lewark-Lobb, see [\textit{L. Lewark} and \textit{A. Lobb}, Proc. Lond. Math. Soc. (3) 112, No. 1, 81--114 (2016; Zbl 1419.57017); \textit{A. Lobb}, Algebr. Geom. Topol. 12, No. 1, 293--305 (2012; Zbl 1244.57018); \textit{H. Wu}, Adv. Math. 221, No. 1, 54--139 (2009; Zbl 1167.57007)].
