Ring structures in singular instanton homology

Geometric Topology 2023-07-19 v1

Abstract

We calculate the ring structure of the singular instanton Floer homology of (S1×Σ,S1×{p1,,pn})(S^1\times \Sigma, S^1\times \{p_1,\dots,p_n\}) with C-coefficients, where Σ\Sigma is a closed oriented surface. As an application, we prove an excision formula for singular instanton homology when n=1. This settles the last unknown case of excision formula for instanton Floer homology.
