Heegaard Floer chain complex
ID: heegaard-floer-chain-complex
For an admissible pointed Heegaard diagram, is a free chain complex with one generator for each point of . Each generator is an unordered selection containing exactly one intersection on each alpha circle and exactly one on each beta circle. After choosing coherent orientations,Here is the moduli space modulo strip translation, is the Maslov index, and is multiplicity at the basepoint. Holomorphic representatives have nonnegative domain multiplicities. The differential lowers grading by one and lowers it by two. Boundary strata of one-dimensional moduli spaces give the cancellation proving . Its homology is .
