Categorification of Verma Modules in low-dimensional topology
Pedro Vaz (Université Catholique de Louvain, Belgium)
Abstract: In this talk I will review the program of categorification of Verma modules and explain their applications to low-dimensional topology, namely to the construction of Khovanov invariants for links in the solid torus via a categorification of the blob algebra.
The material presented spreads along several collaborations with Abel Lacabanne, and Grégoire Naisse.
