    Seiberg-Witten Floer homology and symplectic forms on (S^1 \times M^3)

    (Geometry & Topology Publications, 2009) Kutluhan, Cagatay; Taubes, Clifford

    Let (M) be a closed, connected, orientable 3-manifold. The purpose of this paper is to study the Seiberg-Witten Floer homology of (M) given that (S^1 \times M) admits a symplectic form.

    4-Manifolds With Inequivalent Symplectic Forms and 3-Manifolds With Inequivalent Fibrations

    (International Press, 1999) McMullen, Curtis; Taubes, Clifford

    We exhibit a closed, simply connected 4-manifold (X) carrying two symplectic structures whose first Chern classes in (H^2 (X, \mathbb{Z})) lie in disjoint orbits of the diffeomorphism group of (X). Consequently, the moduli space of symplectic forms on (X) is disconnected. The example (X) is in turn based on a 3-manifold (M). The symplectic structures on (X) come from a pair of fibrations (\pi_0, \pi_1 : M \rightarrow S^1) whose Euler classes lie in disjoint orbits for the action of ( \mathrm{Diff}(M) ) on (H_1(M, \mathbb{R})).
