Title: Link homology and Frobenius extensions
Authors: Mikhail Khovanov
Categories: math.QA Quantum Algebra (math.GT Geometric Topology)
Comments: 13 pages, 2 figures
MSC: 57M27
Journal reference: Fundamenta Mathematicae, 190 (2006), 179-190.

Abstract: We explain how rank two Frobenius extensions of commutative rings lead to link homology theories and discuss relations between these theories, Bar-Natan theories, equivariant cohomology and the Rasmussen invariant.
