On arithmetic Dijkgraaf-Witten theory
Abstract
We present basic constructions and properties in arithmetic Chern-Simons theory with finite gauge group along the line of topological quantum field theory. For a finite set of finite primes of a number field , we construct arithmetic analogues of the Chern-Simons 1-cocycle, the prequantization bundle for a surface and the Chern-Simons functional for a -manifold. We then construct arithmetic analogues for and of the quantum Hilbert space (space of conformal blocks) and the Dijkgraaf-Witten partition function in (2+1)-dimensional Chern-Simons TQFT. We show some basic and functorial properties of those arithmetic analogues. Finally we show decomposition and gluing formulas for arithmetic Chern-Simons invariants and arithmetic Dijkgraaf-Witten partition functions.
