Manolescu's HOMFLY-PT to knot Floer homology spectral sequence conjecture

Let LL be a link in S3S^3. Write coverlineH(L)coverline{H}(L) and H(L)H^-(L) for the reduced, middle, and unreduced HOMFLY-PT homologies of LL, and coverlineHFK(L)coverline{\operatorname{HFK}}(L), HFK(L)\operatorname{HFK}^-(L), and HFK(L)\operatorname{HFK}(L) for the corresponding variants of knot Floer homology. Ignoring gradings at first, Manolescu's conjecture. There are spectral sequences with

  • E2E_2 page coverlineH(L)coverline{H}(L) and EE_{\infty} page coverlineHFK(L)coverline{\operatorname{HFK}}(L);
  • E2E_2 page H(L)H^-(L) and EE_{\infty} page HFK(L)\operatorname{HFK}^-(L);
  • E2E_2 page H(L)H(L) and EE_{\infty} page HFK(L)\operatorname{HFK}(L).

Moreover, such sequences are given by the construction of Manolescu, which is known to give EE_{\infty} pages recovering HFK\operatorname{HFK}. This conjecture would connect HOMFLY-PT homology to knot Floer homology for links. The E1E_1 page of Manolescu's construction has been identified with the appropriate sum of HOMFLY-PT complexes for singular resolutions, but identifying the E2E_2 page with HOMFLY-PT homology for links with nonsingular crossings remains open.
