Pin(2)-equivariant Seiberg-Witten Floer homology of Seifert fibrations (1505.03234v2)

Abstract: We compute the $\mathrm{Pin}(2)$-equivariant Seiberg-Witten Floer homology of Seifert rational homology three-spheres in terms of their Heegaard Floer homology. As a result of this computation, we prove Manolescu's conjecture that $\beta=-\bar{\mu}$ for Seifert integral homology three-spheres. We show that the Manolescu invariants $\alpha, \beta,$ and $\gamma$ give new obstructions to homology cobordisms between Seifert fiber spaces, and that many Seifert homology spheres $\Sigma(a_1,...,a_n)$ are not homology cobordant to any $-\Sigma(b_1,...,b_n)$. We then use the same invariants to give an example of an integral homology sphere not homology cobordant to any Seifert fiber space. We also show that the $\mathrm{Pin}(2)$-equivariant Seiberg-Witten Floer spectrum provides homology cobordism obstructions distinct from $\alpha,\beta,$ and $\gamma$. In particular, we identify an $\mathbb{F}[U]$-module called connected Seiberg-Witten Floer homology, whose isomorphism class is a homology cobordism invariant.
