A natural question as generalizations of (1 + 1)-TQFT.

Essential cobordisms are used in global Khovanovhomology by Asaeda–Przytycki-Sikora [APS] (for thickenedsurfaces F × [0, 1]), Turaev-Turner [TT] (unorientedTQFT) and Ishii-Tanaka [IT] (for virtual knots, cf.[Manturov]). They should have algebraic structures.

Foams appear in sl(3) Khovanov homology [Mackaay-Vaz].

By considering such algebraic structures of generalizedTQFTs, new generalizations of KhoHo may be found.

Possible refinements of Bar-Natan modules byAsaeda-Frohman, Kaiser.

By checking all conditions in [APS],

Definition

We propose a commutative Frobenius pair (A,E ):

(i) A = (mA,∆A, ιA, εA) is a commutative Frobenius algebraover k .(ii) E is an A-bimodule and A-bicomodule, with the same rightand left actions and coactions.

Theorem

Let A be a commutative Frobenius algebra with handle elementφ, such that there exists an element ξ ∈ A with ξ2 = φ. Thenthere exists a commutative Frobenius pair with Mobius maps.

Corollary

Let A = E = k[X ]/(X 2 − hX − t), where k = Z[a±1, b±1], andh = −2b−1(a− b−1), t = −b−2(a2 + h). Then (A,E ) givesrise to a commutative Frobenius pair with Mobius maps.

Are there other TQFTs and theta foam values that produce Liealgebras?

Theorem

For any positive odd integer N > 1, there exists a TQFT thatinduces a Lie algebra structure along branch circles.

Sketch proof. Let A = R[X ]/(X N) for an odd integer N > 1.For N > 3, define

θ(X a,X b,X c) =

1 if a = 0, b + c = N, 1 < b < c ,−1 if a = 0, b + c = N, 1 < c < b,0 otherwise

Conclusion

Conclusion:

For essential cobordisms:

We proposed an algebraic structure, commutative Frobeniuspairs, that describes essential cobordisms in thickened surfacesand cobordisms formed by virtual circles with poles.

Constructions and new examples are provided, that may beuseful in further generalizing Khovanov homology for thickenedsurfaces and virtual knots.

For foams:

We studied Lie algebra and bialgebra structures along branchcircles.

Skein modules and more general foams need more study.
