Abstract

Various Seiberg–Witten–Floer cohomologies are defined for a closed, oriented three-manifold; and if it is the mapping torus of an areapreserving surface automorphism, it has an associated periodic Floer homology as defined by Michael Hutchings. We construct an isomorphism between a certain version of Seiberg–Witten–Floer cohomology and the corresponding periodic Floer homology, and describe some immediate consequences.
