DESCRIPTION:András Némethi (Budapest\, MTA)\nLinks of complex normal su
 rface singularities are graph manifolds\nwith negative definite intersecti
 on forms. To such a 3-manifold we construct a\ncohomology theory\, called 
 the `lattice cohomology'. It is a bridge between\ntopological and analytic
 al invariants of the singularity. Its Euler characteristic is the\nSeiberg
 -Witten invariant of the link\, conjecturally it  coincides with the\nHee
 gaard Floer homology of the link\; on the other hand it has subtle connect
 ion with\nthe  cohomology of analytic line bundles on the resolution (e.g
 . with the\ngeometric genus). These connections are concentrated around se
 veral key conjectures.\nWe discuss these conjectures\, results and several
  examples.
