Integral Rasmussen invariant conjecture for Whitehead doubles of odd torus knots
Integral Rasmussen invariant conjecture for Whitehead doubles of odd torus knots
Let denote the -torus knot, let denote the positive -twisted Whitehead double of a knot , and let denote the mirror of . For a knot, is the integral Rasmussen invariant recorded as the relevant ordered pair.
Whitehead-double torus-knot conjecture. If is a positive integer and is the mirror of
then
The conjecture is motivated by computed Whitehead-double examples and is closely related to a conjecture that the flat -cabling of contains Khovanov-homology torsion of order . Computations establish the relevant torsion in low cases, but its survival to the page, needed for the asserted invariant formula, remains to be checked.
