2-Verma modules and the Khovanov-Rozansky link homologies, I

Coauthors: Grégoire Naisse (Univ. catholique de Louvain

In this talk I will explain how to obtain the HOMFLYPT and the gl(N)-link polynomials using parabolic Verma modules for gl(2k). I will then sketch the theory of categorified Verma modules and use it to give a construction of Khovanov-Rozansky's HOMFLYPT and gl(N)-link homologies.
