We further show how Floer homology is related to other invariants of knots and 3--manifolds, among which are the $\\bar\\mu$--invariant of W.~Neumann and L.~Siebenmann and the Jones polynomial. Essential progress is made in proving the homology cobordism invariance of our own $\\nu$--invariant.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1997-01-24T00:00:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "brieskorn homology spheres", "floer homology", "atiyahs problem", "homology cobordism invariance", "jones polynomial" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "1997math......1211S" } } }
