Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space of A Set Indexed Brownian MotionIJMERJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: This study researches a representation of set indexed Brownian motion { : } X X A A A via orthonormal basis, based on reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). The RKHS associated with the set indexed Brownian motion X is a Hilbert space of real-valued functions on T that is naturally isometric to 2 L ( ) A . The isometry between these Hilbert spaces leads to useful spectral representations of the set indexed Brownian motion, notably the Karhunen-Loève (KL) representation: [ ] X e E X e A n A n where { }n e is an orthonormal sequence of centered Gaussian variables. In addition, we present two special cases of a representation of a set indexed Brownian motion, when ([0,1] ) d A A and A = A( ) Ls .

The mp-quantales were introduced in a previous paper as an abstraction of the lattices of ideals in mp-rings and the lattices of ideals in conormal lattices. Several properties of m-rings and conormal lattices were generalized to mp-quantales. In this paper we shall prove new characterization theorems for mp-quantales and for semiprime mp-quantales (these last structures coincide with the P F-quantales). Some proofs reflect the way in which the reticulation functor (from coherent quantales to bounded distributive lattices) allows us to export some properties from conormal lattices to mp-quantales.

This are the notes of a seminar talk delivered in summer 2008 at Bonn. Let SU (2, 1) be the
moduli space of rank 2 bundles with a fixed determinant of rank 1 over a curve C of genus g ≥ 2.
This is a Fano manifold of Picard rank 1. We discuss the example g = 2 where SU (2, 1) is the
intersection of two quadrics in P5 . In this case the minimal rational curves are lines. There is a
very interesting class of rational curves on SU (2, 1), called Hecke curves, which are constructed
by extending a given bundle by torsion sheaves. In the case g ≥ 3 we will see that Hecke curves
have minimal anti-canonical degree (4) and that any rational curve passing through a generic
point is a Hecke curve.

Quantum bialgebras derivable from Uq(sl2) which contain idempotents and von Neumann regular Cartan-like generators are introduced and investigated. Various types of antipodes (invertible and von Neumann regular) on these bialgebras are constructed, which leads to a Hopf algebra structure and a von Neumann-Hopf algebra structure, respectively. For them, explicit forms of some particular R-matrices (also, invertible and von Neumann regular) are presented, and the latter respects the Pierce decomposition.

Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
Cancer cell metabolism: special Reference to Lactate PathwayAADYARAJPANDEY1
Normal Cell Metabolism:
Cellular respiration describes the series of steps that cells use to break down sugar and other chemicals to get the energy we need to function.
Energy is stored in the bonds of glucose and when glucose is broken down, much of that energy is released.
Cell utilize energy in the form of ATP.
The first step of respiration is called glycolysis. In a series of steps, glycolysis breaks glucose into two smaller molecules - a chemical called pyruvate. A small amount of ATP is formed during this process.
Most healthy cells continue the breakdown in a second process, called the Kreb's cycle. The Kreb's cycle allows cells to “burn” the pyruvates made in glycolysis to get more ATP.
The last step in the breakdown of glucose is called oxidative phosphorylation (Ox-Phos).
It takes place in specialized cell structures called mitochondria. This process produces a large amount of ATP. Importantly, cells need oxygen to complete oxidative phosphorylation.
If a cell completes only glycolysis, only 2 molecules of ATP are made per glucose. However, if the cell completes the entire respiration process (glycolysis - Kreb's - oxidative phosphorylation), about 36 molecules of ATP are created, giving it much more energy to use.
IN CANCER CELL:
Unlike healthy cells that "burn" the entire molecule of sugar to capture a large amount of energy as ATP, cancer cells are wasteful.
Cancer cells only partially break down sugar molecules. They overuse the first step of respiration, glycolysis. They frequently do not complete the second step, oxidative phosphorylation.
This results in only 2 molecules of ATP per each glucose molecule instead of the 36 or so ATPs healthy cells gain. As a result, cancer cells need to use a lot more sugar molecules to get enough energy to survive.

introduction to WARBERG PHENOMENA:
WARBURG EFFECT Usually, cancer cells are highly glycolytic (glucose addiction) and take up more glucose than do normal cells from outside.
Otto Heinrich Warburg (; 8 October 1883 – 1 August 1970) In 1931 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology for his "discovery of the nature and mode of action of the respiratory enzyme.
WARNBURG EFFECT : cancer cells under aerobic (well-oxygenated) conditions to metabolize glucose to lactate (aerobic glycolysis) is known as the Warburg effect. Warburg made the observation that tumor slices consume glucose and secrete lactate at a higher rate than normal tissues.
(May 29th, 2024) Advancements in Intravital Microscopy- Insights for Preclini...Scintica Instrumentation
Intravital microscopy (IVM) is a powerful tool utilized to study cellular behavior over time and space in vivo. Much of our understanding of cell biology has been accomplished using various in vitro and ex vivo methods; however, these studies do not necessarily reflect the natural dynamics of biological processes. Unlike traditional cell culture or fixed tissue imaging, IVM allows for the ultra-fast high-resolution imaging of cellular processes over time and space and were studied in its natural environment. Real-time visualization of biological processes in the context of an intact organism helps maintain physiological relevance and provide insights into the progression of disease, response to treatments or developmental processes.
In this webinar we give an overview of advanced applications of the IVM system in preclinical research. IVIM technology is a provider of all-in-one intravital microscopy systems and solutions optimized for in vivo imaging of live animal models at sub-micron resolution. The system’s unique features and user-friendly software enables researchers to probe fast dynamic biological processes such as immune cell tracking, cell-cell interaction as well as vascularization and tumor metastasis with exceptional detail. This webinar will also give an overview of IVM being utilized in drug development, offering a view into the intricate interaction between drugs/nanoparticles and tissues in vivo and allows for the evaluation of therapeutic intervention in a variety of tissues and organs. This interdisciplinary collaboration continues to drive the advancements of novel therapeutic strategies.
Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil

As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
This presentation explores a brief idea about the structural and functional attributes of nucleotides, the structure and function of genetic materials along with the impact of UV rays and pH upon them.

4. Introduction : Khovanov homology
Khovanov homology HKh is a bigraded link homology theory,
constructed combinatorially from a planar link diagram.
Theorem ([Kho00, Theorem 1])
For any diagram D of an oriented link L, the isomorphism class of
H··
Kh(D; R) (as a bigraded R-module) is an invariant of L.
Proposition ([Kho00, Proposition 9])
The graded Euler characteristic of H··
Kh(L; Q) gives the
(unnormalized) Jones polynomial of L:
i,j
(−1)i

dimQ(Hij
Kh(L; Q)) = (q + q−1
)V (L)|√
t=−q.
7. Introduction : Lee homology and Lee’s classes
Lee homology HLee is a variant of Khovanov homology. Although
the construction is similar, when R = Q the structure of HLee is
strikingly simple.
For a:::::
knot ::::::::
diagram D, there are two distinct classes [α], [β]
constructed combinatorially from D.
Theorem ([Lee05, Theorem 4.2])
When R = Q, the two classes [α], [β] form a basis of HLee(D; Q).
Remark
For a ::
link:::::::
diagram D with components, there are 2 distinct classes [α(D, o)]
one for each alternative orientation o of D. These form a basis of HLee(D; Q).
8. Introduction : Rasmussen’s s-invariant
Rasmussen introduced in [Ras10] an integer-valued knot invariant,
called the s-invariant, based on Q-Lee homology.
HLee is :::
not::::::::
bigraded (unlike HKh), but admits a filtration by
q-degree. For a knot K, the s-invariant is defined by
s(K) :=
qmax + qmin
2
,
where qmax (resp. qmin ) denotes the maximum (resp. minimum)
q-degree of HLee(K; Q).
Many properties of s are proved from the fact that [α], [β] are
::::::::
invariant::::
(up::
to::::::
unit) under the Reidemeister moves. Hence
Rasmussen called them the “canonical generators” of
HLee(K; Q).
9. Introduction : Properties of s
Theorem ([Ras10, Theorem 2])
s defines a homomorphism from the knot concordance group in S3
to 2Z:
s : Conc(S3
) → 2Z.
Theorem ([Ras10, Theorem 1])
s gives a lower bound of the slice genus:
|s(K)| ≤ 2g∗(K).
Theorem ([Ras10, Theorem 4])
If K is a positive knot, then
s(K) = 2g∗(K) = 2g(K).
10. Introduction : Properties of s
With the above three properties of s, one obtains:
Corollary (The Milnor Conjecture, [Mil68])
The (smooth) slice genus and the unknotting number of the (p, q)
torus knot are both equal to (p − 1)(q − 1)/2.
Remark
The Milnor Conjecture was first proved by Kronheimer and
Mrowka in [KM93] using gauge theory, but Rasmussen’s result was
notable since it provided a purely combinatorial proof.
11. Our observations
Now we consider :::
Lee::::::::::
homology::::
over::
Z. Let D be a knot diagram,
and denote
HLee(D; Z)f = HLee(D; Z)/Tor.
The two classes [α], [β] can be defined over Z, but they ::
do::::
not
form a basis of HLee(D; Z)f
∼= Z2.
We created a computer program1 that calculates the components
of [α], [β] with respect to some basis of HLee(D; Z)f . It turned
out, that for any prime knot diagram of crossing number up to 11,
only 2-powers appear in those components.
Question
Where does the 2-powers come from, and what information can we
extract from the 2-divisibility of [α], [β]?
1
https://github.com/taketo1024/SwiftyMath
13. Overview of our results (1/2)
We consider the question in a more generalized setting. There
exists a family of Khovanov-type homology theories {Hc(−; R)}c∈R
over a commutative ring R parameterized by c ∈ R.
For each c ∈ R, Lee’s classes [α], [β] of a knot diagram D can also
be defined in Hc(D; R).
If ::
R ::
is:::
an :::::::
integral::::::::
domain and ::
c ::
is :::::::::
non-zero,:::::::::::::
non-invertible, then
we can define the c-divisibility of [α] (modulo torsions) by the
exponent of its c-power factor. We denote it by kc(D).
By inspecting the variance of kc under the Reidemeister moves, we
prove that
sc(K) := 2kc(D) + w(D) − r(D) + 1
is a knot invariant, where w is the writhe, and r is the number of
Seifert circles.
14. Overview of our results 2/2
Again by computations, we saw that ::::::
values ::
of:::::::::
s2(−; Z)::::::::
coincide
::::
with::::::
values:::
of:
s for all prime knots of crossing number up to 11.
Question
Are all sc equal to s?
The following theorems support the affirmative answer.
Theorem (S.)
Each sc possesses properties common to s. In particular, the each
sc can be used to reprove the Milnor conjecture.
Theorem (S.)
If (R, c) = (Q[h], h), then the knot invariant sh coincides with s
s(K) = sh(K; Q[h]).
15. Conventions
In this talk, all knots and links are assumed to be oriented. For
simplicity, we mainly focus on knots, but many of the results can
be generalized to links.

17. Frobenius algebra (1/2)
Let R be a commutative ring with unity. A Frobenius algebra
over R is a quintuple (A, m, ι, ∆, ε) satisfying:
1. (A, m, ι) is an associative R-algebra with multiplication
m : A ⊗ A → A and unit ι : R → A,
2. (A, ∆, ε) is a coassociative R-coalgebra with comultiplication
∆ : A → A ⊗ A and counit ε : A → R, and
3. the Frobenius relation holds:
∆ ◦ m = (id ⊗ m) ◦ (∆ ⊗ id) = (m ⊗ id) ◦ (id ⊗ ∆).
18. Frobenius algebra (2/2)
A commutative Frobenius algebra A gives a 1+1 TQFT
FA : Cob2 −→ ModR,
by mapping:
Objects:
· · ·
r
−→ A ⊗ · · · ⊗ A
r
Morphisms:
19. Construction of the chain complex
Let D be a link diagram with n crossings. The 2n resolutions of
the crossings yields a commutative cubic diagram in Cob2.
By applying FA we obtain a commutative cubic diagram in ModR.
Then we turn this cube skew commutative by appropriately
adjusting the signs of the edge maps.
Finally we fold the cube and obtain a chain complex CA(D) and its
homology HA(D).
20. Khovanov homology and its variants
Khovanov’s original theory is given by A = R[X]/(X2). Other
variant theories are given by:
A = R[X]/(X2 − 1) → Lee’s theory
A = R[X]/(X2 − hX) → Bar-Natan’s theory
Khovanov unified these theories in [Kho06] by considering the
following special Frobenius algebra with h, t ∈ R:
Ah,t = R[X]/(X2
− hX − t).
Denote the corresponding chain complex by Ch,t(D; R) and its
homology by Hh,t(D; R). The isomorphism class of Hh,t(D; R) is
invariant under Reidemeister moves, thus gives a link invariant.

22. Generalizing Lee’s classes (1/2)
In order to generalize Lee’s classes [α], [β] in Hh,t(D; R), we
assume (R, h, t) satisfies the following condition:
Condition
X2 − hX − t factors into linear polynomials in R[X].
This is equivalent to:
Condition
There exists c ∈ R such that h2 + 4t = c2 and (h ± c)/2 ∈ R.
With this condition, fix one square root c =
√
h2 + 4t, and let
X2 − hX − t = (X − u)(X − v) with c = v − u. Define
a = X − u, b = X − v ∈ A.
23. Generalizing Lee’s classes (2/2)
With a and b, the multiplication and comultiplication on A
diagonalizes as:
m(a ⊗ a) = ca, ∆(a) = a ⊗ a,
m(a ⊗ b) = 0, ∆(b) = b ⊗ b
m(b ⊗ a) = 0
m(b ⊗ b) = −cb
We define the cycles α, β ∈ Ch,t(D; R) by the orientation
preserving resolution of D.
Remark
For a ::
link:::::::
diagram D with components, there are 2 distinct cycles α(D, o)
one for each alternative orientation o of D.
24. Reduction of parameters
In our setting, we may reduce the parameters (h, t) to a single
parameter c.
Proposition
For another (h , t ) such that c =
√
h 2 + 4t , the corresponding
groups Hh,t(D; R) and Hh ,t (D; R) are naturally isomorphic, and
under the isomorphism the Lee classes correspond one-to-one.
Thus we denote the isomorphism class by Hc(D; R) and regard
[α], [β] ∈ Hc(D; R).
The figure depicts the (h, t)-parameter
space, where each point
(h, t) corresponds to Hh,t(D; R) and
the parabola h2 + 4t = c2 corresponds
to the isomorphism class Hc(D; R).
25. Generalizing Lee’s theorem
The following proposition generalizes Lee’s theorem for Q-Lee
homology (Q-Lee homology corresponds to (R, c) = (Q, 2)).
Proposition
If :
c::
is:::::::::
invertible in R, then {[α], [β]} form a basis of Hc(D; R).
Proof.
A is free over R with basis {1, X}. Now {a, b} also form a basis of
A, since the transformation matrix −u −v
1 1 has determinant
v − u = c.
By the admissible colorings decomposition of Cc(D; R) (proposed
by Wehrli in [Weh08]), one can show that the subcomplex
generated by α and β becomes Hc(D; R), whereas the remaining
part is acyclic.
Remark
For a ::
link:::::::
diagram D, the 2 classes {[α(D, o)]}o form a basis of Hc (D; R).
26. Correspondence under Reidemeister moves (1/2)
Next, the following proposition generalizes the “invariance of [α]
and [β] (up to unit) in Q-Lee theory”.
Proposition
Suppose D, D are two diagrams related by a single Reidemeister
move. Under the corresponding isomorphism:
ρ : Hc(D; R) → Hc(D ; R)
there exists some j ∈ {0, ±1} and ε, ε ∈ {±1} such that the
α, β-classes of D and D are related as:
[α ] = εcj
· ρ[α],
[β ] = ε cj
· ρ[β].
(Here c is not necessarily invertible, so when j < 0 the equation
z = cj w is to be understood as c−j z = w.)
27. Correspondence under Reidemeister moves (2/2)
Proposition (continued)
Moreover the exponent j is given by
j =
∆r − ∆w
2
where r denotes the number of Seifert circles, w denotes the
writhe, and the prefixed ∆ is the difference of the corresponding
numbers for D and D .
Proof.
The isomorphism ρ is given explicitly, and the proof is done by
checking all possible patterns of [α] and those images under ρ.
Note that [α], [β] are invariant (up to unit) iff :
c::
is:::::::::
invertible.
Remark
Similar statement holds for link diagrams.
28. Summary
We defined a family of Khovanov-type link homology theories
{Hc(−; R)}c∈R, where Knovanov’s theory corresponds to
c = 0 and Lee’s theory corresponds to c = 2.
For each c ∈ R, we generalized Lee’s classes [α], [β] of a knot
diagram D in Hc(D; R).
[α], [β] form a basis of Hc(D; R) and are invariant (up to
unit) under the Reidemeister moves iff :
c::
is:::::::::
invertible.
Thus the situation is completely analogous to Q-Lee theory when c
is invertible. Our main concern is when :
c::
is::::
not:::::::::
invertible.

30. c-divisibility of the α-class
Let R be an integral domain, and c ∈ R be a non-zero
non-invertible element in R. Denote
Hc(D; R)f = Hc(D; R)/Tor.
By abuse of notation, we denote the images of [α], [β] in
Hc(D; R)f by the same symbols.
Definition
For any knot diagram D, define the c-divisibility of [α] by:
kc(D) := max{k ≥ 0 | [α] ∈ ck
Hc(D; R)f }.
Note that there is a filtration:
Hc(D; R)f ⊃ cHc(D; R)f ⊃ · · · ⊃ ck
Hc(D; R)f ⊃ · · ·
so kc(D) is the maximal filtration level that contains [α].
31. Basic properties of kc(D)
Proposition
0 ≤ kc(D) ≤ n−
(D)
.
In particular if D is positive, then kc(D) = 0. We can regard kc as
the measure of the “non-positivity” of the diagram.
Proposition
1. kc(D) = kc(−D).
2. kc(D) + kc(D ) ≤ kc(D D ).
3. kc(D#D ) ≤ kc(D D ) ≤ kc(D#D ) + 1.
32. Variance of kc under Reidemeister moves
Proposition
Let D, D be two diagrams of the same knot. Then
∆kc =
∆r − ∆w
2
,
where the prefixed ∆ is the difference of the corresponding
numbers for D and D .
Theorem (S.)
For any knot K,
sc(K) := 2kc(D) − r(D) + w(D) + 1
is an invariant of K.
Remark
sc can also be defined for links.

35. Behavior under cobordisms (1/2)
The important properties of s are obtained by inspecting its
behavior under cobordisms between knots. By tracing the
arguments given in [Ras10], we obtain a similar proposition for sc.
Proposition (S.)
If S is an oriented connected cobordism between knots K, K , then
|sc(K ) − sc(K)| ≤ −χ(S).
Remark
Similar statement holds for links.
36. Behaviour under cobordisms (2/2)
Proof sketch.
Decompose S into elementary cobordisms such that each factor
corresponds to a Reidemeister move or a Morse move. Inspect the
successive images of the α-class at each level.
37. Consequences
The previous proposition implies properties of sc that are common
to the s-invariant:
Theorem (S.)
sc is a knot concordance invariant in S3.
For any knot K,
|sc(K)| ≤ 2g∗(K).
If K is a positive knot, then
sc(K) = 2g∗(K) = 2g(K).
These properties suffice to reprove the Milnor conjecture.

39. The refined canonical generators (1/2)
Now we focus on the case
(R, c) = (Q[h], h), deg h = −2
and prove that sh(−; Q[h]) coincides with s.
Recall that in general [α], [β] do not form a basis of Hc(D; R)f .
However in the above case, we can “normalize” them to obtain a
class [ζ] such that {[ζ], X[ζ]} is a basis of Hc(D; R)f .
Moreover they are invariant under the Reidemeister moves, so it is
reasonable to call them the “canonical generators” of Hc(D; R)f .
Remark
X denotes an action on Hc (D; R) defined by merging a circled labeled X
to a neighborhood of a fixed point of D.
40. The refined canonical generators (2/2)
Proposition
There is a unique class [ζ] ∈ Hh(D; R)f such that
[ζ], X[ζ] form a basis of Hh(D; R)f , and are invariant under
the Reidemeister moves.
[α], [β] can be described as
[α] = hk
( (h/2)[ζ] + X[ζ])
[β] = (−h)k
(−(h/2)[ζ] + X[ζ]),
where k = kh(D).
Remark (1)
Unlike [α] or [β], the definition of [ζ] is non-constructive.
Remark (2)
Currently this result is ::::
only :::::::
obtained:::
for::::::
knots.
41. The homomorphism property of sh
From the description of [α], [β] by the class [ζ], we can prove:
Proposition
For (R, c) = (Q[h], h),
kh(D) + kh(D) = r(D) − 1.
kh(D#D ) = kh(D) + kh(D ).
where D denotes the mirror image of D.
And we obtain:
Theorem (S.)
For (R, c) = (Q[h], h), the invariant sh defines a homomorphism
sh : Conc(S3
) → 2Z.
42. Coincidence with the s-invariant (1/4)
Theorem (S.)
For (R, c) = (Q[h], h), our sh(−; Q[h]) coincides with s:
s(K) = 2kh(D) + w(D) − r(D) + 1.
Remark (1)
There is a well known lower bound for s [Shu07, Lemma 1.3]
s(K) ≥ w(D) − r(D) + 1,
so 2kh(D) gives the correction term of the inequality.
Remark (2)
Currently this result is ::::
only :::::::
obtained:::
for::::::
knots.
43. Coincidence with the s-invariant (2/4)
Proof.
Since both s and sh changes sign by mirroring, it suffices to prove
s(K) ≥ sh(K).
Recall that s(K) is defined by the (filtered) q-degree of H2(D; Q).
On the other hand, q-degree on Hh(D; Q[h]) gives a strict grading.
There is a q-degree non-decreasing map
π : Hh(D; Q[h]) → H2(D; Q)
induced from Q[h] → Q, h → 2.
Denote by [α2], [αh] the α-classes of D in H2(D; F), Hh(D; Q[h])
respectively. Then by definition π[αh] = [α2].
44. Coincidence with the s-invariant (3/4)
Proof continued.
Let [αh] = hk[αh] with k = kh(D). Then from deg h = −2,
qdegh([αh]) = qdegh([αh]) + 2k = w(D) − r(D) + 2k,
so we have
s(K) = qdeg([α2]) + 1
= qdeg(π[αh]) + 1
= qdeg(π[αh]) + 1
≥ qdegh([αh]) + 1
= w(D) − r(D) + 2k + 1
= sh(K; F[h]).
45. Coincidence with the s-invariant (4/4)
Corollary
s(K) = qdegh[ζ] − 1.
Remark
Khovanov gave an alternative definition of s in [Kho06] by the
q-degree of the generator of H0,t(D; Q[t]) where deg t = −4. The
equivalence of the two definitions can be proved using the above
result.

47. Question (1)
Are all sc equal to s?
Remark (1)
The s-invariant can be defined over any field F of:::::::::
char F = 2. In fact we
can prove that
s(−; F) = sh(−; F[h]).
It is an open question whether s(−; F) for char F = 2 are all equal or not
[LS14, Question 6.1]. If [Question 1] is solved affirmatively, then it
follows that s(−; F) are all equal.
Remark (2)
In [LS14], an alternative definition of s over any field F (including
char F = 2) is given. It is defined similarly to the original one, but is
based on the ::::::
filtered:::::::::
Bar-Natan:::::::::
homology. However C.Seed showed by
direct computation that K = K14n19265 has s(K; Q) = 0 but
s(K; F2) = −2.
48. Question (2)
Can we construct [ζ] ∈ Hc(D; R) for any (R, c)?
The existence of [ζ] ∈ Hh(D; Q[h]) was the key to prove s = sh.
If such class exists in general, then we can expect that Question
(1) can also be solved. However the current proof for
(R, c) = (Q[h], h) cannot be applied to the general case.
Maybe we can find a more geometric (or combinatorial)
construction.
49. Question (3)
Does s = sc(−; Q[h]) also hold for links?
The definition of s for links is given by Beliakova and Wehrli in
[BW08]. Our sc can also be defined for links, so the question
makes sense.
Maybe we can construct the canonical generators [ζ1], · · · , [ζ2 ] of
Hh(D; Q[h]) such that the α-classes {[α(D, o)]}o can be described
by them.
