Abstract
As an extension of Reshetikhin and Turaev's invariant, Costantino, Geer and Patureau-Mirand constructed -manifold invariants in the setting of relative -modular categories, which include both semisimple and non-semisimple ribbon tensor categories as examples. In this paper, we follow their method to construct a -manifold invariant from Viro's -Alexander polynomial. We take lens spaces and as examples to show that this invariant can distinguish homotopy equivalent manifolds.
