The working mathematician fears complicated words but loves pictures and diagrams. We thus give a no-fancy-anything picture rich glimpse into Khovanov's novel construction of `the categorification of the Jones polynomial'. For the same low cost we also provide some computations, including one that shows that Khovanov's invariant is strictly stronger than the Jones polynomial and including a table of the values of Khovanov's invariant for all prime knots with up to 11 crossings.

  1. Macdonald deformation of Vogel's universality and link hyperpolynomials

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For the adjoint square in ADE Lie algebras, products of Macdonald dimensions with deformed Littlewood-Richardson coefficients are universal, yielding universal formulas for T[2,2n] link hyperpolynomials.

  2. Khovanov complexes for bipartite links

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 2.0 of 10

    Shows that the Kauffman-Khovanov 2²-hypercube reduces to the bipartite 3-hypercube for N=2, confirming consistency of the reduction for bipartite links.
