We extend the construction of Y-type invariants to null-homologous knots in rational homology three-spheres. By considering m-fold cyclic branched covers with m a prime power, this extension provides new knot concordance invariants Y m C ( K ) of knots in S3. We give computations of some of these invariants for alternating knots and reprove independence results in the smooth concordance group.
