 Absolute grading in Heegaard Floer homology

For a torsion Spin-c structure, the relative grading of Heegaard Floer homology lifts canonically to a rational absolute grading, normalized by the bottom plus generator of $S^3$ having degree zero. Multiplication by $U$ has degree $-2$, and a Heegaard Floer cobordism map has degree $(c_1^2-2\chi -3\sigma )/4$. The correction term $d(Y,\mathfrak{s})$ is the lowest grading of the image of $H{F}^{\infty }$ in $H{F}^{+}$ for a rational homology sphere. A pure tower then has bottom plus degree $d$ and top minus degree $d-2$ in the $i<0$ minus convention. Keeping that shift explicit prevents errors of two in surgery and mixed-invariant calculations.
