Khovanov skein lasagna modules and exotica
Michael Willis,
Department of Mathematics,
Texas A&M University,
The Khovanov skein lasagna module S(X;L) is a smooth invariant of a 4-manifold X with link L in its boundary. In this talk I will outline the construction of Khovanov skein lasagna modules, as well as new computations and applications including the detection of some exotic 4-manifolds. This work is joint with Qiuyu Ren.
