We construct a densely defined torus action on the symplectic quotient of the product of three complete flag varieties. The closure of the image of the corresponding moment map is a convex polytope. The dimension of the geometric…
The notion of $q$-deformed lattice gauge theory is introduced. If the deformation parameter is a root of unity, the weak coupling limit of a 3-$d$ partition function gives a topological invariant for a corresponding 3-manifold. It enables…
In a previous paper we constructed rank and support variety theories for "quantum elementary abelian groups," that is, tensor products of copies of Taft algebras. In this paper we use both variety theories to classify the thick tensor…
We prove the quantum modularity of the signature of $ \mathrm{SU}(2) $-TQFT for a genus 2 surface, which was conjectured by March\'{e}--Masbaum in 2025. Our approach is based on a quantum modularity of generalized Dedekind sums associated…
By choosing an unconventional polarization of the connection phase space in (2+1)-gravity on the torus, a modular invariant quantum theory is constructed. Unitary equivalence to the ADM-quantization is shown.
We develop a Laplace transform method for constructing universal invariants of 3-manifolds. As an application, we recover Habiro's theory of integer homology 3-spheres and extend it to some classes of rational homology 3-spheres with cyclic…
In previous work, we proposed a general framework of positive topological field theories (TFTs) based on Eilenberg's notion of summation completeness for semirings. In the present paper, we apply this framework in constructing explicitly a…
We compute the torsion-free linear maps from the Lie algebra su(2) into itself, deduce a new determination of the integrable complex structures and their equivalence classes under the action of the automorphism group for u(2) and…
In this paper, we present the next step in the proof that $Z_{TV,\C} = Z_{RT, Z(\C)}$, namely that the theories give the same 3-manifold invariants. In future papers we will show that this equality extends to an equivalence of TQFTs.
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…
We study certain exactly marginal gaugings involving arbitrary numbers of Argyres-Douglas (AD) theories and show that the resulting Schur indices are related to those of certain Lagrangian theories of class $\mathcal{S}$ via simple…
We present a new set of axioms for 2D TQFT formulated on the category of cell graphs with edge-contraction operations as morphisms. We construct a functor from this category to the endofunctor category consisting of Frobenius algebras.…
We study Quot schemes of vector bundles on algebraic curves. Marian and Oprea gave a description of a topological quantum field theory (TQFT) studied by Witten in terms of intersection numbers on Quot schemes of trivial bundles. Since these…
In this study, we examine the modular transformations of the (root-)$\text{T}\overline{\text{T}}$ deformed torus partition function of a two-dimensional CFT (with a gravitational anomaly) from the holographic perspective by computing the…
We compute the contour integral for the partition function of an $\mathcal{N}=2$ $SU(2)$ topologically twisted theory on $\mathbb{CP}^2$, dimensionally reducing from an $\mathcal{N}=1$ theory on $S^5$. Earlier works presented the partition…
We compute the factorisation homology of the four-punctured sphere and punctured torus over the quantum group $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ explicitly as categories of equivariant modules using the framework of `Integrating Quantum…
We define a 2-dimensional Ising model on a triangulated sphere, $\mathbb S^2$, designed to approach the exact conformal field theory (CFT) in the continuum limit. Surprisingly, the derivation leads to a set of geometric constraints that the…
Based on different views on the Jones polynomial we review representation theoretic categorified link and tangle invariants. We unify them in a common combinatorial framework and connect them via the theory of Soergel bimodules. The…
We find all smooth toric bases that support elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds, using the intersection structure of the irreducible effective divisors on the base. These bases can be used for F-theory constructions of…
A TQFT is a functor from a cobordism category to the category of vector spaces, satisfying certain properties. An important property is that the vector spaces should be finite dimensional. For the WRT TQFT, the relevant 2+1-cobordism…
