Anchored foams and annular homology

We describe equivariant SL(2) and SL(3) homology for links in the solid torus via foam evaluation. The solid torus is replaced by 3-space with a distinguished line in it. Generators of state spaces for annular webs are represented by foams with boundary that may intersect the distinguished line; intersection points, called anchor points, contribute additional terms, reminiscent of square roots of the Hessian, to the foam evaluation. Both oriented and unoriented SL(3) foams are treated in the paper.
