Involutive Floer Invariants for Closed Four-Manifolds
Inspired by the Ozsváth-Szabó mixed invariant in ordinary Heegaard Floer theory, we define a mixed invariant $Φ_{X, \mathfrak{s}}^{I}$ for closed, spin four-manifolds $(X, \mathfrak{s})$ using the cobordism maps on involutive Heegaard Floer homology. The invariant is well-defined whenever $b_{2}^{+}(X) > 4$. We furthermore construct an involutive Seiberg-Witten invariant that is well-defined whenever $b_{2}^{+}(X) > 3$. We show that these involutive invariants obstruct the existence of disjoint pairs of embedded surfaces which both violate the adjunction inequality. As an application, we find that $K3\#(S^2 \times S^2)$ contains no such pair.
