The Schur quotient of the Khovanov-Lauda categorification of quantum ${\mathrm{sl}}_n$ and colored HOMFLY homology

In my talk I will first remind everyone of the relation between quantum $\mathrm{sln}$, the $q$-Schur algebra and colored HOMFLY homology. After that I will explain how these objects and the relation between them have been categorified.
