Abstract
Co-author: Andrew Lobb (Durham University)
Khovanov-Rozansky homology in its most general form (so-called equivariant homology) associates to a knot a chain complex (invariant up to homotopy equivalence) over a certain polynomial ring. Equivariant homology yields various lower bounds to the slice genus, some of them concordance homomorphisms, some not; and also a piecewise linear function which has much resemblance with the recently introduced Upsilon-invariant from Heegaard-Floer homology.
