  1. Reductions in Khovanov-Rozansky operator formalism

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Khovanov-Rozansky invariants are recast as a bicomplex of local operators D and conjugations χ^(±), with nilpotency on closed diagrams allowing reductions that simplify the hypercube construction.

  2. A supergroup series for knot complements

    math.GT 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Defines the three-variable superalgebra series F_K(y,z,q) for knot complements, derives its surgery relation to hat Z(q), and computes examples for torus knots.
