We prove duality theorems for twisted Reidemeister torsions and twisted Alexander polynomials generalizing the results of Turaev. As a corollary we determine the parity of the degrees of twisted Alexander polynomials of 3-manifolds in many…
We establish the geometry behind the quantum $6j$-symbols under only the admissibility conditions as in the definition of the Turaev-Viro invariants of $3$-manifolds. As a classification, we show that the $6$-tuples in the quantum…
We consider three-dimensional topological field theories on manifolds with boundary defects and identify explicit boundary locality conditions. These conditions imply a state sum construction of the given TQFT. As a consistency check, we…
A shaped triangulation is a finite triangulation of an oriented pseudo three manifold where each tetrahedron carries dihedral angles of an ideal hyberbolic tetrahedron. To each shaped triangulation, we associate a quantum partition function…
In this paper we develop the theory of finite-type invariants for homologically nontrivial 3-manifolds. We construct an infinite-dimensional affine space with a hypersurface in it corresponding to manifolds with Morse singularities.…
There are many interesting dynamical systems in which degenerate invariant tori appear. We give conditions under which these degenerate tori have stable and unstable invariant manifolds, with stable and unstable directions having arbitrary…
We study the relationship between trivial cocycles on the Torelli group and invariants of oriented integral homology 3-spheres. We give ncecessary and sufficient conditions for a function defined on the union of the Torelli groups to be an…
This paper generalizes two facts about oriented 3d TFTs to the unoriented case. On one hand, it is known that oriented 3d TFTs having a topological boundary condition admit a state-sum construction known as the Turaev-Viro construction.…
Determining the existence of compact invariant manifolds is a central quest in the qualitative theory of differential equations. Singularities, periodic solutions, and invariant tori are examples of such invariant manifolds. A classical and…
We restrict geometric tangential equivariant complex $T^n$-bordism to torus manifolds and provide a complete combinatorial description of the appropriate non-commutative ring. We discover, using equivariant $K$-theory characteristic…
In 2015, Chen and Yang proposed a volume conjecture that stated that certain Turaev-Viro invariants of an hyperbolic 3-manifold should grow exponentially with a rate equal to the hyperbolic volume. Since then, this conjecture has been…
We establish a framework for extending invariants of sutured manifolds to invariants of pairs of sutured manifolds who differ by attaching a basic slice along a torus boundary component. In the particular case of (bordered-)sutured Floer…
In this article, we obtain an asymptotic expansion formula for the relative Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant in the case that the ambient 3-manifold is gained by doing rational surgery along one component of Whitehead link. In addition, we…
Given a knot $K$ inside an integer homology sphere $Y$, the Casson-Lin-Herald invariant can be interpreted as a signed count of conjugacy classes of irreducible representations of the knot complement into $SU(2)$ which map the meridian of…
We define topological invariants in terms of the ground states wave functions on a torus. This approach leads to precisely defined formulas for the Hall conductance in four dimensions and the topological magneto-electric $\theta$ term in…
We show that the Makar-Limanov invariant of the cylinder over the Koras-Russell cubic affine threefold is trivial. This means that regular functions which are invariant under all algebraic actions of the additive group on this variety are…
We define an $SL_2(\mathbb{R})$-Casson invariant of closed 3-manifolds. We also observe procedures of computing the invariants in terms of Reidemeister torsions. We discuss some approach of giving the Casson invariant some gradings.
We study the global invariants of real analytic manifolds in the complex space with respect to the group of holomorphic unimodular transformations. We consider only totally real manifolds which admits a certain fibration over the circle. We…
We create Resthetikhin-Turaev topological invariants of closed orientable three-manifolds from the quantum supergroup U_q(osp(1|2n)) at certain even roots of unity. To construct the invariants we develop tensor product theorems for finite…
We completely classify the Q-factorial terminal toric Fano three-folds such that the sum of the squared torus invariant prime divisors is non-negative.
