Link Floer Homology and (almost) braids

-
Fraser Binns, Princeton University

Link Floer homology is an invariant of links in the three sphere due to Ozsv谩th-Szab贸. It is natural to ask what the topological content of link Floer homology is. Martin showed that Link Floer homology detects braids. In this talk I will discuss a generalisation of this result to 鈥渁lmost braids鈥. This is work in progress with Subhankar Dey.
