Handle decompositions and the 1-dimensional inputs skein lasagna module
Published 28 Jun 2026 in math.GT and math.QA | (2606.29452v1)
Abstract: We establish handle attachment formulas for the Khovanov skein lasagna module with 1-dimensional inputs over $\mathbb{Q}$, defined recently by Ren, Wedrich, Willis, Zhang, and the second author. For a $4$-manifold built out of $1$- and $2$-handles, the invariant can be computed in terms of a cabled colimit of Rozansky-Willis homologies, modulo a new relation which we call the lasso relation. We then present some explicit calculations for disk bundles over $S{2}$, as well as a partial vanishing result for $4$-manifolds of the form $Σ_{g}\times D{2}$, $g\geq 1$.
