48 results for Heegaard Floer knot complex

In this survey article, we discuss several different knot concordance invariants coming from the Heegaard Floer homology package of Ozsvath and Szabo. Along the way, we prove that if two knots are concordant, then their knot Floer complexes satisfy a certain type of stable equivalence.

Study of knot Floer homology and its relation to Heegaard Floer homology via equivariant surgery.

problem Understanding the action of symmetries on knot Floer homology.
method Relating knot Floer homology to Heegaard Floer homology via equivariant surgeries.
result Identify the action of the involution on Heegaard Floer homology with an action on knot Floer homology.

We give new obstructions to the module structures arising in Heegaard Floer homology. As a corollary, we characterize the possible modules arising as the Heegaard Floer homology of an integer homology sphere with one-dimensional reduced Floer homology. Up to absolute grading shifts, there are only two. We use this coro…

Using the conjugation symmetry on Heegaard Floer complexes, we define a three-manifold invariant called involutive Heegaard Floer homology, which is meant to correspond to Z4\mathbb{Z}_4-equivariant Seiberg-Witten Floer homology. Further, we obtain two new invariants of homology cobordism, d\underline{d} and dˉ\bar{d}

New technique connects instanton Floer homology to Heegaard diagrams for knots and 3-manifolds.

problem Accessing structural properties of instanton Floer homology.
method Developed a new technique using Heegaard diagrams and sutures.
result Established a relation between instanton knot homology and Heegaard diagrams for (1,1)(1,1)-knots.

In this brief note, we give an explicit sequence of Heegaard moves interpolating between local versions of the Kauffman-states Heegaard diagram and the planar Heegaard diagram used in knot Floer homology, and show how these local moves can be used to go between the global versions of the Heegaard diagrams.

We use bordered Heegaard Floer homology to compute the tau invariant of a family of satellite knots obtained via twisted infection along two components of the Borromean rings, a generalization of Whitehead doubling. We show that tau of the resulting knot depends only on the two twisting parameters and the values of tau…

In an earlier paper, we introduced a knot invariant for a null-homologous knot K in an oriented three-manifold Y, which is closely related to the Heegaard Floer homology of Y. In this paper we investigate some properties of these knot homology groups for knots in the three-sphere. We give a combinatorial description fo…

Let KK be a null-homologous knot in a three-manifold YY. We give a description of the Heegaard Floer homology of integer surgeries on YY along KK in terms of the filtered homotopy type of the knot invariant for KK. As an illustration, we calculate the Heegaard Floer homology groups of non-trivial circle bundles ov…

We define sutured Heegaard diagrams for null-homologous knots in 3-manifolds. These diagrams are useful for computing the knot Floer homology at the top filtration level. As an application, we give a formula for the knot Floer homology of a Murasugi sum. Our result echoes Gabai's earlier works. We also show that for so…

In 2003, Ozsváth and Szabó defined the concordance invariant ττ for knots in oriented 3-manifolds as part of the Heegaard Floer homology package. In 2011, Sarkar gave a combinatorial definition of ττ for knots in S3S^3 and a combinatorial proof that ττ gives a lower bound for the slice genus of a knot. Recently, Har…
