Manolescu correction terms and knots in the three-sphere
arXiv:1607.05220
Abstract
Manolescu correction terms are numerical invariants of homology three-spheres arising from $\mathrm{Pin}(2)$-equivariant Seiberg-Witten theory that contain information about homology cobordism. We discuss several constraints on these invariants for homology spheres obtained by Dehn surgery on a knot in the three-sphere (and, more generally, in an integral homology $L$-space) in terms of the surgery coefficient, the concordance order, and the genus.
