Khovanov Homology and the Slice-Ribbon Conjecture regarding Concordance of Knots
Abstract
We construct a hyper-categorified spectral sequence converging to the stable Khovanov homology of the infinite cyclic cover, establishing a homological obstruction to the non-ribbon slice condition via the Rasmussen s-invariant and Lee's deformation.
