dc.description.abstract This thesis studies the construction of Khovanov homology for (3, k)-torus knots by using combinatorial topology and skein theory, identifying common characteristics of Khovanov Bracket for (3, k)-torus knots. The r-th homology, Hr , of the complex C is calculated explicitly for r = 0, 1, 2k − 1 and 2k, it allows to obtain some exponents of the variables q and t in the graded Poincaré polynomial of the complex C, which is called the Khovanov bracket.

La r-ésima homología, Hr , del complejo C se calcula de forma explícita para r = 0, 1, 2k − 1 y 2k, lo que permite obtener algunos exponentes de las variables q y t en el polinomio de Poincaré del complejo C, el cual es llamado Khovanov bracket.
