The homology formula conjecture for the level-two HOMFLYPT Yang–Baxter operator

Let R(2)R_{(2)} be the level-two HOMFLYPT Yang–Baxter operator, let kk be the coefficient ring used for the homology, and let (fi)(f_i) be the delayed Fibonacci sequence. Define

sn2=i=1n1fi=fn+11,s_{n-2}=\sum_{i=1}^{n-1}f_i=f_{n+1}-1,

and let ana_n satisfy

2n=2+an1+sn3+an+sn2.2^n=2+a_{n-1}+s_{n-3}+a_n+s_{n-2}.

Level-two homology formula conjecture.

Hn(R(2))=k2(k/(1y2))an(k/(1y2))sn2.H_n(R_{(2)})=k^2\oplus\left(k/(1-y^2)\right)^{a_n}\oplus\left(k/(1-y^2)\right)^{s_{n-2}}.

The supplied excerpt gives no resolution or status evidence for this formula. Its relationship to the later rank results should be checked.
