Isomorphism between sutured monopole and sutured Floer contact invariants

About 12 years old · traced to

Let (M,Γ,ξ)(M,\Gamma,\xi) be a sutured contact manifold, and let ψ(M,Γ,ξ)∈SHM‾(−M,−Γ)\psi(M,\Gamma,\xi)\in\underline{SHM}(-M,-\Gamma) and EH(M,Γ,ξ)∈SFH(−M,−Γ)EH(M,\Gamma,\xi)\in SFH(-M,-\Gamma) denote the monopole Floer and sutured Floer contact invariants, respectively. Let R\mathcal{R} be the coefficient ring used for sutured monopole Floer homology. Contact-invariant comparison conjecture. There exists an isomorphism

SHM‾(−M,−Γ)⟶SFH(−M,−Γ)⊗R\underline{SHM}(-M,-\Gamma)\longrightarrow SFH(-M,-\Gamma)\otimes\mathcal{R}

which sends ψ(M,Γ,ξ)\psi(M,\Gamma,\xi) to EH(M,Γ,ξ)⊗1EH(M,\Gamma,\xi)\otimes 1. Such an isomorphism would identify the monopole and sutured Floer contact invariants and provide the anticipated agreement between the two contact theories. The source presents this as a future goal and gives no evidence of resolution.
