Khovanov Homology as an Generalization of the Jones Polynomial in Kauffman Terms
This paper explains the construction of Khovanov homology of which begins by un derstanding how Louis Kauffman generalizes the Jones polynomial using a state sum model of the bracket polynomial for an unoriented knot or link and in turn recovers the Jones polynomial, a knot invariant for an oriented...
