Abstract of Crash Course in Link Homology:
Khovanov homology and its offspring are the subjects of the burgeoning
field of link homology which lies at an intersection of low-dimensional
topology, Lie theory and quantum field theory.
In the first part of the talk I intend to give a quick, accessible
introduction to the Jones polynomial and Khovanov homology. In the second
part I will hint at directions of current research and connections to other
parts of mathematics (and maybe physics).
