2-strand twisting in Khovanov-Rozansky homology.

Durham University

The twisting of two strands of a knot gives rise to a simple tensor factor of the knot homology. We consider maps of long exact sequences of homology groups which arise in this context, and give some results deduced from playing with these maps.
