Consider the following question: Let $K\subset S^{3}$ be a nontrivial knot, and let $Y$ be the manifold obtained by doing $1/n$-surgery ($n\geq1$). Is it possible that the instanton Floer homology of $...

In Hom's paper (arXiv link), p.20, Section 3.3 ends with "There are other algebraic modifications one may consider, such as setting $U^n = 0$ or $UV = 0$", referring to the knot Floer ...

I am an undergraduate who wants to learn Knot Floer homology. I was told to start with this expository paper which was working quite well until I reached the actual definition of the differential. ...
