Seiberg–Witten and Gromov invariants for self-dual harmonic $2$–forms

Abstract

Our earlier work (Geom. Topol. 24 (2020) 1791–1839) gives an extension of Taubes’ “ $SW = Gr$ ” theorem to nonsymplectic $4$ –manifolds. The main result of this sequel asserts the following: whenever the Seiberg–Witten invariants are defined over a closed minimal $4$ –manifold $X$ , they are equivalent modulo 2 to “near-symplectic” Gromov invariants in the presence of certain self-dual harmonic $2$ –forms on $X$ . A version for nonminimal $4$ –manifolds is also proved. A corollary to Morse theory on $3$ –manifolds is also announced, recovering a result of Hutchings, Lee, and Turaev about the $3$ –dimensional Seiberg–Witten invariants.
