Superpolynomials of algebraic links

Abstract

Theory of motivic superpolynomials is developed, including its extension to algebraic links colored by rows, relations to $L$-functions of plane curve singularities, the justification of the motivic versions of Weak Riemann Hypothesis, and recurrences for iterated torus links. The key theme is the conjectural coincidence of motivic superpolynomials with the DAHA ones, which can be interpreted as a far-reaching generalization of the Shuffle Conjecture. Applications include affine Springer fibers of type $A_n$ and compactified Jacobians in the most general case (for arbitrary characteristic polynomials) and extended rho-invariants of algebraic knots. The 2nd connection conjecture relates the superpolynomials to the Galkin-St\"ohr $L$-functions, which is some counterpart of the ORS conjecture. The corresponding theory of plane curve singularities is systematically exposed and developed, which can be seen in the case of Hopf links as a generalized version of Schubert Calculus.

On Diagrammatic Categorification of Verma Modules I: Braiding

In this paper, we study the extensions of KLRW algebras to tensor products of Verma module representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. Our motivation is to construct a theory of Khovanov homology for knot complements in $S^3$ (and which also categorifies the Gukov-Manolescu two-variable series for knot complements), which will be done in the second part of this work. We construct the categorification of R-matrices for Verma modules as functors given by derived tensor products with diagrammatic bimodules and explicitly compute their projective resolutions. We also prove these braiding functors induce an action of the braid group on the relevant categories. Then, we describe how to incorporate strands in finite-dimensional representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$, thereby establishing functors that serve as the Khovanov homology on a braid complement. In the case of the unknot, this gives knot homologies in $S^1\times D^2$, which we compare to Annular Khovanov Homology through several examples and show they are very closely related, conjecturing they are of the same dimension. We conclude with a proposal for the categorification of the cups and caps of Verma module colored strands, which we build upon in the next paper.

Some finite dimensional representations of shifted quantum affine algebras of type A

In this paper, we study finite dimensional representations of shifted quantum affine algebras of type A. We give an explicit description of the tensor product of simple evaluation modules of the quantum loop algebra and a one-dimensional representation of the shifted quantum affine algebra under the separation condition. As a consequence, we give the q-characters of some finite dimensional simple modules of the shifted quantum affine algebra.
