A fast algorithm for calculating S-invariants

Schuetz, Dirk (2021) 'A fast algorithm for calculating S-invariants.', Glasgow mathematical journal., 63 (2). pp. 378-399.

Abstract

We use the divide-and-conquer and scanning algorithms for calculating Khovanov cohomology directly on the Lee- or Bar-Natan deformations of the Khovanov complex to give an alternative way to compute Rasmussen s-invariants of knots. By disregarding generators away from homological degree 0, we can considerably improve the efficiency of the algorithm. With a slight modification, we can also apply it to a refinement of Lipshitz–Sarkar.
