Seiberg-Witten equations, end-periodic Dirac operators, and a lift of Rohlin's invariant
Tomasz S. Mrowka, Daniel Ruberman, Nikolai Saveliev
We introduce a gauge-theoretic integer lift of the Rohlin invariant of a smooth 4-manifold X with the homology of . The invariant has two terms; one is a count of s…
