Furuta–Ohta and Seiberg–Witten invariant correspondence conjecture
A homology is a smooth oriented -manifold with the integral homology of . A homology additionally has an infinite cyclic cover with the integral homology of . Let be such a manifold with a fixed orientation and homology orientation, and let and denote its Furuta–Ohta and Seiberg–Witten invariants, respectively.
Furuta–Ohta–Seiberg–Witten correspondence conjecture.
The conjecture proposes that the Donaldson-theoretic Furuta–Ohta invariant agrees, up to sign, with the Seiberg–Witten invariant constructed in the paper. The authors present evidence for this relationship, but no resolution is given here.
