Sutured ECH is a natural invariant

Cagatay Kutluhan, Steven Sivek, C. H. Taubes

We show that sutured embedded contact homology is a natural invariant of sutured contact 3-manifolds which can potentially detect some of the topology of the space of contact struc…

Donaldson invariants of symplectic manifolds

Steven Sivek

We prove that symplectic 4-manifolds with $b_{1} = 0$ and $b^{+} > 1$ have nonvanishing Donaldson invariants, and that the canonical class is always a basic class. We also characterize…
