The orientation-vanishing conjecture for Seiberg–Witten invariants

From papers

Let XX be a simply connected, closed, oriented, smooth 44-manifold with b2+(X)>1b_2^+(X)>1 and b2(X)>1b_2^-(X)>1. Orientation-vanishing conjecture. The Seiberg–Witten invariant vanishes for at least one orientation of XX. The conjecture concerns the constraint imposed by choosing an orientation; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
