Gauge Theory Seminar: Aganagic’s invariant is Khovanov homology

SEMINARS: GAUGE THEORY AND TOPOLOGY

When: November 21, 2025
3:30 pm - 4:30 pm
Where: Science Center 507
Address: 1 Oxford Street, Cambridge, MA 02138, United States
Speaker: Isabella Khan (MIT)

This talk will discuss an isomorphism between endomorphism algebras from the wrapped Fukaya category of a type of punctured surface, and a class of A-infinity algebras related to bordered knot Floer homology. After a brief outline of the constructions and algebraic methods used in the proof, this talk will focus on the model calculations with Fukaya categories that both motivate and help to verify this result.
