Title:
The unfolded Seiberg-Witten Floer spectra for three manifolds

Speaker:
Jianfeng Lin

Abstract:
In 2003, Manolescu defined the Seiberg-Witten Floer stable homotopy type for rational homology three-spheres. This powerful invariant has many applications including the disproof of higher dimensional triangulation conjecture (Manolescu 2014). In this talk, I will explain how to generalize Manolescu’s construction to define spectrum invariants for general three-manifolds and discuss some applications of these new invariants. This is a joint work with Tirasan Khandhawit and Hirofumi Sasahira.
