Abstract
We establish a formula expressing Miyazawa's 2-knot invariant in terms of the Lefschetz number of a map on ordinary (i.e., not real) monopole Floer homology. As an application, we deduce that for any 2-knot in which has a punctured -space as a Seifert solid. In the course of the proof of the main theorem, we show how Francesco Lin's construction of monopole Floer homology with -equivariant perturbations can be made to work with integer coefficients.
