We present the alternative topological twisting of N=4 Yang-Mills, in which the path integral is dominated not by instantons, but by flat connections of the COMPLEXIFIED gauge group. The theory is nontrivial on compact orientable four-manifolds with nonpositive Euler number, which are necessarily not simply connected. On such manifolds, one finds a single topological invariant, analogous to the Casson invariant of three-manifolds.

Topological Twisting of 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ Supersymmetric Field Theories
For any 4d N=2 theory, topologically twisted partition functions depend on the diffeomorphism type, 't Hooft fluxes, and a generalized spin-c structure.
