Torus knots and rational Cherednik algebras
by

Coauthors: Pavel Etingof, Ivan Losev

We prove that all colored HOMFLY-PT invariants of torus knots have nonnegative coefficients

when expanded in (-a) and q. Moreover, these coefficients are equal to the dimensions of certain

components in certain irreducible representations of rational Cherednik algebras. The talk is based

on arXiv:1304.3412.
