On some $p$–differential graded link homologies, II

You Qi and Joshua Sussan

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 23 (2023) 3357–3394
Abstract

In a previous article, we constructed a link invariant categorifying the Jones polynomial at a 2p th root of unity, where p is an odd prime. This categorification utilized an N = 2 specialization of a differential introduced by Cautis in an 𝔰𝔩N–link homology theory. Here we give a family of link homologies where the Cautis differential is specialized to a positive integer of the form N = kp + 2. When k is even, all these link homologies categorify the Jones polynomial evaluated at a 2p th root of unity, but they are distinct link invariants.
