Khovanov Homology

The coefficients of the monomials $t^{r}q^{j}$ are shown, along with their alternating sums $\chi$ (fixed $j$, alternation over $r$). The squares with yellow highlighting are those on the "critical diagonals", where $j-2r=s+1$ or $j-2r=s-1$, where $s=$-4 is the signature of 9 18. Nonzero entries off the critical diagonals (if any exist) are highlighted in red.
