The Seiberg-Witten equations on 3-manifolds with boundary
The Seiberg-Witten equations have proved to be quite powerful in studying smooth 4-manifolds since their landing in 1994. The corresponding Seiberg-Witten theory on closed 3-manifolds can either be obtained by a dimension reduction from the four-dimensional theory, or by following Floer's appr...
