Abstract
In this paper, we compute the Khovanov homology over ℚ for (p, -p, q) pretzel knots for 3 ≤ p ≤ 15, p odd , and arbitrarily large q. We provide a conjecture for the general form of the Khovanov homology of (p, -p, q) pretzel knots. These computations reveal that these knots have thin Khovanov homology (over ℚ or ℤ). Because Greene has shown that these knots are not quasi-alternating, this provides an infinite class of non-quasi-alternating knots with thin Khovanov homology.
