Trivial-torsion conjecture for four-longitude sutured monopole Floer homology

About 8 years old · traced to

Let GtorG_{\mathrm{tor}} be the torsion group appearing in Lemma 4. The group is associated to the monopole Floer homology computation for the closure of (V,γ4)⊔(V,γ4)(V,\gamma^4)\sqcup(V,\gamma^4).

Trivial-torsion conjecture. The torsion group GtorG_{\mathrm{tor}} in Lemma 4 is trivial:

Gtor=0.G_{\mathrm{tor}}=0.

The conjecture arises from an expected direct computation of the monopole Floer homology of a particular closure constructed by Kronheimer and Mrowka. The preceding rank calculations constrain the torsion, but do not determine it completely.
