The Maslov-grading conjecture for strongly quasipositive knots
The Maslov-grading conjecture for strongly quasipositive knots
Let be a strongly quasipositive knot with genus , and let denote the summand of knot Floer homology in Maslov grading and top Alexander grading . Maslov-grading conjecture. The minimal Maslov grading in the top Alexander piece is zero:
This would extend the observed relationship between the leading exponent of and knot Floer homology beyond the classes checked in the paper. Its general validity is open.
