Abstract: | We study the behavior of the moduli space of solutions to theSeiberg–Witten equations under a conformal change in the metric of aKähler surface (M,g). If the canonical line bundle K
M is ofpositive degree, we prove there is only one (up to gauge) solution tothe equations associated to any conformal metric to g. We use this, toconstruct examples of four dimensional manifolds withSpin
c
-structures, whose moduli spaces of solutions to theSeiberg–Witten equations, represent a nontrivial bordism class ofpositive dimension, i.e. the Spin
c
-structures are not inducedby almost complex structures. As an application, we show the existenceof infinitely many nonhomeomorphic compact oriented 4-manifolds withfree fundamental group and predetermined Euler characteristic andsignature that do not carry Einstein metrics. |
