Categorified Young symmetrizers and stable homology of torus links (1505.08148v2)
Published 29 May 2015 in math.QA and math.GT
Abstract: We show that the triply graded Khovanov-Rozansky homology of the torus link $T_{n,k}$ stablizes as $k\to \infty$. We explicitly compute the stable homology (as a ring), which proves a conjecture of Gorsky-Oblomkov-Rasmussen-Shende. To accomplish this, we construct complexes $P_n$ of Soergel bimodules which categorify the Young symmetrizers corresponding to one-row partitions and show that $P_n$ is a stable limit of Rouquier complexes. A certain derived endomorphism ring of $P_n$ computes the aforementioned stable homology of torus links.
