Abstract
We propose a way to define and compute invariants of general smooth 4-manifolds based on topological twists of non-Lagrangian 4d
$$ \mathcal{N}=2\kern0.5em \mathrm{and}\kern0.5em \mathcal{N}=3 $$
N
=
2
and
N
=
3
theories in which the problem is reduced to a fairly standard computation in topological A-model, albeit with rather unusual targets, such as compact and non-compact Gepner models, asymmetric orbifolds,
$$ \mathcal{N}=\left(2,2\right) $$
N
=
2

linear dilaton theories, “self-mirror” geometries, varieties with complex multiplication, etc.
