Abstract: Using the conjugation symmetry on Heegaard Floer complexes,
we define a three-manifold invariant called involutive Heegaard Floer
homology, which is meant to correspond to Z/4-equivariant
Seiberg-Witten Floer homology. Further, we obtain two new numerical
invariants of homology cobordism, explicitly computable for surgeries
on L-space knots (such as torus knots) and thin knots (such as
alternating knots). As applications, we give new bounds on the slice
genus of alternating knots. This is joint work with Kristen Hendricks.
