Powers-of-two torsion conjecture for Khovanov homology

Let LL be a link, and consider its integral Khovanov homology. Torsion has order pp if it contains an element whose order is pp.

Powers-of-two torsion conjecture. The Khovanov homology of every link has no torsion of order pp for any pp other than a power of 22.

The conjecture reflects the computational observation that only powers of 22 had appeared as torsion orders. The supplied text gives no resolution status.
