4-D invariants from Khovanov homology

The goal of our learning seminar is to gain a foundation on questions in 4-D topology and Khovanov homology with a goal of understading the Morrison-Walker-Wedrich invariant. We meet on Mondays at 4pm (Boston time) over Zoom. If you want more information please contact me.

Below is our schedule and references for each talk.
