  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Abstract We consider manifold-knot pairs$$(Y,K)$$, whereYis a homology 3-sphere that bounds a homology 4-ball. We show that the minimum genus of a PL surface$$\Sigma $$in a homology ballX, such that$$\partial (X, \Sigma ) = (Y, K)$$can be arbitrarily large. Equivalently, the minimum genus of a surface cobordism in a homology cobordism from$$(Y, K)$$to any knot in$$S^3$$can be arbitrarily large. The proof relies on Heegaard Floer homology.

  4. We prove that the quotient of the integer homology cobordism group by the subgroup generated by the Seifert fibered spaces is infinitely generated.

  6. 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.
