On the Ozsvath-Szabo invariant of negative definite plumbed 3-manifolds

András Némethi

Geometry & Topology 9 (2005) 991–1042

DOI: 10.2140/gt.2005.9.991

Abstract

The main goal of the present article is the computation of the Heegaard Floer homology introduced by Ozsváth and Szabó for a family of plumbed rational homology 3–spheres. The main motivation is the study of the Seiberg–Witten type invariants of links of normal surface singularities.

Keywords

3–manifolds, Ozsváth–Szabó Heegaard Floer homology, Seiberg–Witten invariants, Seifert manifolds, Lens spaces, Casson–Walker invariant, Q–homology spheres, Reidemeister–Turaev torsion, normal surface singularities, rational singularities, elliptic singularities
