State cycles, quasipositive modification, and constructing H-thick knots in Khovanov homology

We study Khovanov homology classes which have state cycle representatives, and examine how they interact with Jacobsson homomorphisms and Lee's map phi. As an application, we describe a general procedure, quasipositive modification, for constructing H-thick knots in rational Khovanov homology....
