摘要
We describe the first part of a gluing theory for the bigraded Khovanov homology with Z-coefficients. This part associates a type D structure to a tangle properly embedded in a half space and proves that the homotopy class of the type D structure is an invariant of the isotopy class of the tangle. The construction is modeled off bordered Heegaard-Floer homology, but uses only combinatorial/diagrammatic methods. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
