Abstract
We construct a knot whose braid index is not detected by the Morton-Franks-Williams (MFW) inequality but is detected by a related KR-MFW inequality that comes from the Khovanov-Rozansky homology. We also construct infinitely many knots whose braid indices are not detected by the KR-MFW inequality.
