An sl(n) stable homotopy type for matched diagrams (2019)
Journal Article

There exists a simplified Bar-Natan Khovanov complex for open 2-braids. The Khovanov cohomology of a knot diagram made by gluing tangles of this type is therefore often amenable to calculation. We lift this idea to the level of the Lipshitz-Sarkar sta... Read More about An sl(n) stable homotopy type for matched diagrams.

Khovanov homotopy calculations using flow category calculus (2019)
Journal Article

The Lipshitz–Sarkar stable homotopy link invariant defines Steenrod squares on the Khovanov cohomology of a link. Lipshitz–Sarkar constructed an algorithm for computing the first two Steenrod squares. We develop a new algorithm which implements the f...
