We introduce an sl(n) homology theory for knots and links in the thickened annulus. To do so, we first give a fresh perspective on sutured annular Khovanov homology, showing that its definition follows naturally from trace decategorifications of enhanced sl(2) foams and categorified quantum gl(m), via classical skew Howe duality. This framework then extends to give our annular sl(n) link homology theory, which we call sutured annular Khovanov-Rozansky homology. We show that the sl(n) sutured…

Evaluations of annular Khovanov-Rozansky homology
Author(s): Gorsky, Eugene; Wedrich, Paul | Abstract: We describe the universal target of annular Khovanov-Rozansky link homology functors as the homotopy category of a free symmetric monoidal…
Symmetric Khovanov-Rozansky link homologies
We provide a finite dimensional categorification of the symmetric evaluation of $\mathfrak{sl}_N$-webs using foam technology. As an output we obtain a symmetric link homology theory categorifying the…
Computing annular Khovanov homology
We deVne a third grading on Khovanov homology, which is an invariant of annular links but changes by 1 under stabilization. We illustrate the use of our computer implementation, and give some example…
Khovanov homology for links in thickened multipunctured disks
We define a variant of Khovanov homology for links in thickened disks with multiple punctures. This theory is distinct from the one previously defined by Asaeda, Przytycki, and Sikora, but is related…
Annular Evaluation and Link Homology
We use categorical annular evaluation to give a uniform construction of both $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ and HOMFLYPT Khovanov-Rozansky link homology, as well as annular versions of these theories. Variations…
Khovanov homology and categorification of skein modules
For every oriented surface of finite type, we construct a functorial Khovanov homology for links in a thickening of the surface, which takes values in a categorification of the corresponding gl(2)…
Invariants of 4-manifolds from Khovanov-Rozansky link homology
We use Khovanov-Rozansky gl(N) link homology to define invariants of oriented smooth 4-manifolds, as skein modules constructed from certain 4-categories with well-behaved duals. The technical heart…

Annular Khovanov homology and knotted Schur–Weyl representations
Let $\mathbb{L}\subset A\times I$ be a link in a thickened annulus. We show that its sutured annular Khovanov homology carries an action of $\mathfrak{sl}_{2}(\wedge )$ , the exterior current algebra…
Extremal weight projectors II.
In previous work, we have constructed diagrammatic idempotents in an affine extension of the Temperley-Lieb category, which describe extremal weight projectors for sl(2), and which categorify…
