Title:
The framed instanton homology of a surface times a circle

Speaker:
Christopher Scaduto

Abstract:
We compute a version of SO(3) instanton homology for a surface times a circle with non-trivial bundle. This is roughly the Morse homology of a functional whose critical set is a space of framed flat SO(3)-connections on a surface, and it is related to the kernel of a distinguished endomorphism on Floer's (unframed) instanton homology.
