Götsche–Kool universal cobordism power-series conjecture

Let SS be a smooth projective surface with b1(S)=0b_1(S)=0, pg(S)>0p_g(S)>0, KS0K_S\ne0, and only Seiberg–Witten basic classes 00 and KSK_S. Let H,c1,c2H,c_1,c_2 be chosen so that there are no rank 22 strictly Gieseker HH-semistable sheaves on SS with Chern classes c1,c2c_1,c_2, put M:=MSH(2,c1,c2)M:=M_S^H(2,c_1,c_2), and let π:Mpt\pi:M\to\mathrm{pt} be the projection. Götsche–Kool's universal cobordism conjecture. There exists a universal power series L(p,v)1+Q[v1,v2,][[p]]L(p,\mathbf v)\in1+\mathbb Q[v_1,v_2,\ldots][[p]] such that π[M]Ωvir\pi_*[M]^{\mathrm{vir}}_{\Omega_*} is the coefficient of pvd(M)p^{\operatorname{vd}(M)} in

ψS(p,v)=8(12(n=0[K3[n]]p2n)12)χ(OS)(2L(p,v))KS2.\psi_S(p,\mathbf v)=8\left(\frac12\left(\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}[K3^{[n]}]p^{2n}\right)^{\frac12}\right)^{\chi(\mathcal O_S)}\left(2L(p,\mathbf v)\right)^{K_S^2}.

The conjecture extends the universality known for cobordism classes of Hilbert schemes of points and asserts that all dependence on SS occurs through χ(OS)\chi(\mathcal O_S) and KS2K_S^2; it remains open in the stated generality.
