The Lin geography restriction conjecture for Heegaard Floer homology

From papers

Let YY be a rational homology sphere. Say that HF(Y)\operatorname{HF}^-(Y) satisfies the Lin geography restriction when it has either no UU-torsion or an F[U]/UF\mathbb{F}[U]/U\simeq\mathbb{F} summand.

Lin geography restriction conjecture. The Heegaard Floer module HF(Y)\operatorname{HF}^-(Y) satisfies the Lin geography restriction for all rational homology spheres YY.

Lin's theorem shows that a rational homology sphere admitting a taut foliation has an F[U]/U\mathbb{F}[U]/U summand in its Heegaard Floer module. The conjecture extends the resulting restriction to all rational homology spheres and is supported by surgery-formula calculations for a broad class of examples.
