The paper connects knot homology, quantum 6j-symbols, and complements of knots.

problem Investigating the relationship between knot homology, quantum 6j-symbols, and knot complements.
method Developed a grading rule for HOMFLY-PT and Kauffman homology, found relationships between A-polynomials, and conjectured closed-form expressions for quantum 6j-symbols and knot complements.
result Closed-form expressions for SO(N) quantum 6j-symbols and conjectured expressions for (a,t)-deformed F_K for knot complements.

The paper connects quivers to knot complements and studies their BPS states and 3d N=2 theories.

problem Understanding the relationship between quivers and knot complements.
method Assigning quivers to knot complements and exploring their physical interpretation.
result Proposed a physical interpretation of quivers in terms of BPS states and 3d N=2 theories.

Reshetikhin-Turaev (a.k.a. Chern-Simons) TQFT is a functor that associates vector spaces to two-dimensional genus g surfaces and linear operators to automorphisms of surfaces. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that there exists a Macdonald q,t-deformation -- refinement -- of these operators that preserves the…

Simplified KR polynomial for bipartite links reduces to tensor products of vector spaces.

problem Complexity reduction of Khovanov-Rozansky polynomial for bipartite links.
method Local reduction of matrix factorizations to planar cycles and simplification to vector spaces.
result KR polynomial for bipartite links simplifies to tensor products of vector spaces.

We conjecture explicit evolution formulas for Khovanov polynomials for pretzel knots in some regions in the windings space. Our description is exhaustive for genera 1 and 2. As previously observed, evolution at T != -1 is not fully smooth: it switches abruptly at the boundaries between different regions. We reveal that…

We review a construction of a new class of algebraic curves, called super-A-polynomials, and their quantum generalizations. The super-A-polynomial is a two-parameter deformation of the A-polynomial known from knot theory or Chern-Simons theory with SL(2,C) gauge group. The two parameters of the super-A-polynomial encod…

The generalized volume conjecture relates asymptotic behavior of the colored Jones polynomials to objects naturally defined on an algebraic curve, the zero locus of the A-polynomial A(x,y)A(x,y). Another "family version" of the volume conjecture depends on a quantization parameter, usually denoted qq or \hbar; this quan…

The paper generalizes knot invariants and their connections to quivers and ideals.

problem Understanding knot complements and their invariants.
method Generalizing FKF_K invariants, knots-quivers correspondence, and AA-polynomials; associating FKF_K to branch of AA-polynomial; quiver generating series; RR-matrices; quantum aa-deformed AA-polynomial; 3d-5d theory.
result Explicit expressions for FKF_K invariants and their quiver representations for several simple knots.

We introduce and compute a 2-parameter family deformation of the A-polynomial that encodes the color dependence of the superpolynomial and that, in suitable limits, reduces to various deformations of the A-polynomial studied in the literature. These special limits include the t-deformation which leads to the "refined A…
