Abstract
We show that, associated with any complex root of unity , there exists a particularly simple 4d-TQFT model defined on the cobordism category of Delta complexes. For an oriented closed 4-manifold of Euler characteristic , it is conjectured that the quantity , where is the order of , takes only finitely many values as a function of . In particular, it is equal to 1 for , for , and for .
