We introduce a generalization of the Dijkgraaf-Witten invariants for cusped or compact oriented 3-manifolds. We show that the generalized DW invariants distinguish some pairs of cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds with the same hyperbolic volumes…
This paper wishes to foster communication between mathematicians and physicists working in mirror symmetry and orbifold Gromov-Witten theory. We provide a reader friendly review of the physics computation in [arXiv:hep-th/0607100] that…
Given a 3-cocycle $\psi$ in the cohomology of a finite group $G$, we can define the Dijkgraaf-Witten invariant of closed 3-manifolds. In this paper, we focus on the case where $\psi$ is a 3-cocycle canonically obtained from the second Chern…
We give a construction of a state sum invariant of a closed spin 3-manifold based on a super 3-cocycle $(\widetilde{\alpha}, \omega)$ and a combinatorial representation of a spin 3-manifold, where $\omega$ is a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-valued cocycle…
In this talk we recall some concepts of Noncommutative Gauge Theories. In particular, we discuss the q-deformed two-dimensional Euclidean Plane which is covariant with respect to the q-deformed Euclidean group. A Seiberg-Witten map is…
In this paper, we prove an analog of Dijkgraaf-Witten's theorem for $g=1$ invariants in quantum K-theory.
We present a method of computing genus zero two-point descendant Gromov-Witten invariants via one-point invariants. We apply our method to recover some of calculations of Zinger and Popa-Zinger, as well as to obtain new calculations of…
It is known that the writhe calculated from any reduced alternating link diagram of the same (alternating) link has the same value. That is, it is a link invariant if we restrict ourselves to reduced alternating link diagrams. This is due…
A model is proposed which generates all oriented $3d$ simplicial complexes weighted with an invariant associated with a topological lattice gauge theory. When the gauge group is $SU_q(2)$, $q^n=1,$ it is the Turaev-Viro invariant and the…
We derive a canonical form for 2-group gauge theory in 3+1D which shows they are either equivalent to Dijkgraaf-Witten theory or to the so-called "EF1" topological order of Lan-Wen. According to that classification, recently argued from a…
For any prime number p and any positive real number {\alpha}, we construct a finitely generated group {\Gamma} with p-gradient equal to {\alpha}. This construction is used to show that there exist uncountably many pairwise non-commensurable…
We describe the multiplicative invariant algebras of the root lattices of all irreducible root systems under the action of the Weyl group. In each case, a finite system of fundamental invariants is determined and the class group of the…
The usual construction of link invariants from quantum groups applied to the superalgebra D_{2 1,alpha} is shown to be trivial. One can modify this construction to get a two variable invariant. Unusually, this invariant is additive with…
Naidu classified pairs of finite groups and 3-cocycles that lead to equivalent Dijkgraaf-Witten theories for 3-manifolds. We establish analogous equivalences for arithmetic Dijkgraaf-Witten theory over totally imaginary number fields F…
We provide explicit and unified formulas for the cocycles of all degrees on the normalized bar resolutions of finite abelian groups. This is achieved by constructing a chain map from the normalized bar resolution to a Koszul-like resolution…
Dijkgraaf-Witten theories have a wide range of applications in topological phases of matter and the study of generalized global symmetries. We develop a method to construct BF-type Lagrangians for Dijkgraaf-Witten theories with non-abelian…
In this paper, we provide a construction of a state-sum model for finite gauge-group Dijkgraaf-Witten theory on surfaces with codimension 1 defects. The construction requires not only that the triangulation be subordinate to the filtration,…
We define Gromov-Witten classes and invariants of smooth projective schemes of finite presentation over a Dedekind domain. We prove that they are deformation invariants and verify the fundamental axioms. For a smooth projective scheme over…
We propose a conjectural explicit formula of generating series of a new type for Gromov--Witten invariants of $\mathbb{P}^1$ of all degrees in full genera.
Let $\ix$ be a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack over the complex numbers. One can define twisted orbifold Gromov-Witten invariants of $\ix$ by considering multiplicative invertible characteristic classes of various bundles on the moduli spaces…
