In this paper we use 3-manifold techniques to illuminate the structure of the category of tangles. In particular, we show that every idempotent morphism $A$ in such a category naturally splits as $A=Bcirc C$ such that $Ccirc B$ is an identity morphism.

A genus-1 tangle G is an arc properly embedded in a standardly embedded solid torus S in the 3-sphere. We say that a genus-1 tangle embeds in a knot K in S^3 if the tangle can be completed by adding an arc exterior to the solid torus to form the knot K. We call K a closure of G. An obstruction to embedding a genus-1 tangle G in a knot is given by torsion in the homology of branched covers of S branched over G. We examine a particular example A of a genus-1 tangle, given by Krebes, and consider its two double-branched covers. Using this homological obstruction, we show that any closure of A obtained via an arc which passes through the hole of S an odd number of times must have determinant divisible by three. A resulting corollary is that if A embeds in the unknot, then the arc which completes A to the unknot must pass through the hole of S an even number of times.
We introduce a generalization of oriented tangles, which are still called tangles, so that they are in one-to-one correspondence with the sutured manifolds. We define cobordisms between sutured manifolds (tangles) by generalizing cobordisms between o riented tangles. For every commutative algebra A over Z/2Z, we define A-Tangles to be the category consisting of A-tangles, which are balanced tangles with A-colorings of the tangle strands and fixed SpinC structures, and A-cobordisms as morphisms. An A-cobordism is a cobordism with a compatible A-coloring and an affine set of SpinC structures. Associated with every A-module M we construct a functor $HF^M$ from A-Tangles to A-Modules, called the tangle Floer homology functor, where A-Modules denotes the the category of A-modules and A-homomorphisms between them. Moreover, for any A-tangle T the A-module $HF^M(T)$ is the extension of sutured Floer homology defined in an earlier work of the authors. In particular, this construction generalizes the 4-manifold invariants of Ozsvath and Szabo. Moreover, applying the above machinery to decorated cobordisms between links, we get functorial maps on link Floer homology.

The Hecke algebra H_n contains well known idempotents E_{lambda} which are indexed by Young diagrams with n cells. They were originally described by Gyoja. A skein theoretical description of E_{lambda} was given by Aiston and Morton. The closure of E _{lambda} becomes an element Q_{lambda} of the skein of the annulus. In this skein, they are known to obey the same multiplication rule as the symmetric Schur functions s_{lambda}. But previous proofs of this fact used results about quantum groups which were far beyond the scope of skein theory. Our elementary proof uses only skein theory and basic algebra.
Let $text{Mod}(S_g)$ be the mapping class group of the closed orientable surface $S_g$ of genus $ggeq 2$. In this paper, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions under which two torsion elements in $text{Mod}(S_g)$ will have conjugates that gene rate a finite split nonabelian metacyclic subgroup of $text{Mod}(S_g)$. As applications of the main result, we give a complete characterization of the finite dihedral and the generalized quaternionic subgroups of $text{Mod}(S_g)$ up to a certain equivalence that we will call weak conjugacy. Furthermore, we show that any finite-order mapping class whose corresponding orbifold is a sphere, has a conjugate that lifts under certain finite-sheeted regular cyclic covers of $S_g$. Moreover, for $g geq 5$, we show the existence of an infinite dihedral subgroup of $text{Mod}(S_g)$ that is generated by the hyperelliptic involution and a root of a bounding pair map of degree $3$. Finally, we provide a complete classification of the weak conjugacy classes of the non-abelian finite split metacyclic subgroups of $text{Mod}(S_3)$ and $text{Mod}(S_5)$.
Extending ideas of Hedden-Ni, we show that the module structure on Khovanov homology detects split links. We also prove an analogue for untwisted Heegaard Floer homology of the branched double cover. Technical results proved along the way include two interpretations of the module structure on untwisted Heegaard Floer homology in terms of twisted Heegaard Floer homology and the fact that the module structure on the reduced Khovanov complex of a link is well-defined up to quasi-isomorphism.
