Hence we obtain the induced cap-product structure on the ${\BZ}_8$-graded instanton Floer homology. The cap-product structure provides an essentially new property of the instanton Floer homology, from a topological point of view, which multiplies a finite dimensional cohomology class by an infinite dimensional homology class (Floer cycles) to get another infinite dimensional homology class.14 pages, no figure, AmsLaTexDifferential GeometryCap-prodcut structures on the Fintushel-Stern spectral sequencetext
