A family of $\mathfrak{sl}_{n}$-like invariants in knot Floer homology

Abstract

We define and study a family of link invariants $\mathit{HFK}_{n}(L)$. Although these homology theories are defined using holomorphic disc counts, they share many properties with $sl_{n}$ homology. Using these theories, we give a framework that generalizes the conjectured spectral sequence from Khovanov homology to $\delta$-graded knot Floer homology. In particular, we conjecture that for all links $L$ in $S^3$ and all $n\ge 1$, there is a spectral sequence from the $sl_{n}$ homology of $L$ to $\mathit{HFK}_{n}(L)$.
