  "abstract": "We extend the definition of Khovanov-Lee homology to links in connected sums of interval bundles over surfaces and $S^1\\times S^2$'s, and construct a Rasmussen-type invariant for links in these manifolds. As an application, we prove an inequality relating the Rasmussen-type invariant to the genus of surfaces with boundary in four-manifolds that are boundary connect sums of $D^2\\times S^2$, $\\mathbb{C} P^2\\setminus B^4$, and $DTS^2$.",
