Furuta–Ohta invariant and Seiberg–Witten invariant relation

Let XX be a closed oriented homology-oriented smooth 4-manifold satisfying

H(X;Z)=H(S1×S3;Z),H(X~;Q)=H(S3;Q).H_*(X;\mathbb Z)=H_*(S^1\times S^3;\mathbb Z),\qquad H_*(\widetilde X;\mathbb Q)=H_*(S^3;\mathbb Q).

Let λFO(X)\lambda_{\rm FO}(X) and λSW(X)\lambda_{\rm SW}(X) denote the Furuta–Ohta and Mrowka–Ruberman–Saveliev invariants, respectively. Furuta–Ohta–Seiberg–Witten conjecture.

λFO(X)=λSW(X).\lambda_{\rm FO}(X)=-\lambda_{\rm SW}(X).

The supplied status evidence says this equality has been verified in a number of examples, but does not state that it is proved in full generality.
