Abstract

For each integer $N \geq 2$ , Mariño and Moore defined generalized Donaldson invariants by the methods of quantum field theory, and made predictions about the values of these invariants. Subsequently, Kronheimer gave a rigorous definition of generalized Donaldson invariants using the moduli spaces of anti-self-dual connections on hermitian vector bundles of rank $N$ . We confirm the predictions of Mariño and Moore for simply connected elliptic surfaces without multiple fibers and certain surfaces of general type in the case that $N = 3$ . The primary motivation is to study $3$ –manifold instanton Floer homologies which are defined by higher rank bundles. In particular, the computation of the generalized Donaldson invariants is exploited to define a Floer homology theory for sutured $3$ –manifolds.
