Streszczenie
Recently, Ozsváth and Szabó introduced some algebraic constructions computing knot Floer homology in the spirit of bordered Floer homology, including a family of algebras $\mathcal B (n)$ and, for a generator of the braid group on $n$ strands, a certain type of bimodule over $\mathcal B (n)$. We define analogous bimodules for singular crossings. Our bimodules are motivated by counting holomorphic disks in a bordered sutured version of a Heegaard diagram considered previously by Ozsváth, Stipsicz, and Szabó.
