タイトル：On the Khovanov invariant for links

---

アブストラクト：
In 1999, M.Khovanov constructed an invariant of oriented links. It is a family of (co)homology groups whose graded Euler characteristic is the Jones polynomial. Though his definition is algebraically very complicated, O.Viro simplified it in 2002. In this talk, I will introduce the Khovanov invariant defined by O. Viro and report its related topics.
