A Steenrod Square for Knot Floer homology

Yan Tao, PhD Candidate, Department of Mathematics, UCLA,

We give a combinatorial description of link Floer homology. Then, we outline the Manolescu-Sarkar construction for the link Floer stable homotopy type and show its extension to the full grid. Finally, we find Steenrod squares for this homotopy type, which lets us compute the homotopy type for many examples of knots.
