We use Heegaard Floer homology to define an invariant of homology cobordism. This invariant is isomorphic to a summand of the reduced Heegaard Floer homology of a rational homology sphere equipped with a spin structure and is analogous to Stoffregen’s connected Seiberg–Witten Floer homology. We use this invariant to study the structure of the homology cobordism group and, along the way, compute the involutive correction terms $$\bar{d}$$ and $$\text{}\underline{d}$$ for certain families of three-manifolds.

                            Naturality and functoriality in involutive Heegaard Floer homology
                        
                    
    
            We prove first-order naturality of involutive Heegaard Floer homology, and furthermore, construct well-defined maps on involutive Heegaard Floer homology associated to cobordisms between three-manifolds. We also prove analogous naturality and functoriality results for involutive Floer theory for knots and links. The proof relies on the doubling model for the involution, as well as several variations.

            null (Ed.)The study of triangulations on manifolds is closely related to understanding the three-dimensional homology cobordism group. We review here what is known about this group, with an emphasis on the local equivalence methods coming from Pin.2/- equivariant Seiberg-Witten Floer spectra and involutive Heegaard Floer homology.more » « less

            We give infinitely many examples of manifold-knot pairs (Y, J) such that Y bounds an integer homology ball, J does not bound a non-locally-flat PL-disk in any integer homology ball, but J does bound a smoothly embedded disk in a rational homology ball. The proof relies on formal properties of involutive Heegaard Floer homology.more » « less

            We give a bordered extension of involutive HF-hat and use it to give an algorithm to compute involutive HF-hat for general 3-manifolds. We also explain how the mapping class group action on HF-hat can be computed using bordered Floer homology. As applications, we prove that involutive HF-hat satisfies a surgery exact triangle and compute HFI-hat of the branched double covers of all 10-crossing knots.more » « less

            Abstract A previous result about the decategorified bordered (sutured) Heegaard Floer invariants of surfaces glued together along intervals, generalizing the decategorified content of Rouquier and the author’s higher-tensor-product-based gluing theorem in cornered Heegaard Floer homology, was proved only over $${\mathbb{F}}_2$$ and without gradings. In this paper we add signs and prove a graded version of the interval gluing theorem over $${\mathbb{Z}}$$, enabling a more detailed comparison of these aspects of decategorified Heegaard Floer theory with modern work on non-semisimple 3d TQFTs in mathematics and physics.more » « less
