We introduce a class of 2D lattice models that describe the dynamics of intertwiners, or, in a condensed matter interpretation, the fusion and splitting of anyons. We identify different families and instances of triangulation invariant,…

In this paper, we apply the theory of Chern-Cheeger-Simons to construct canonical invariants associated to a $r$-simplex whose points parametrize flat connections on a smooth manifold $X$. These invariants lie in degrees…

Invariant submanifolds of the so-called Darboux-KP chain are investigated. It is shown that restriction of dynamics on some class of invariant submanifolds yields the extension of the discrete KP hierarchy, while the intersections leads to…

This is lecture notes for a course given at the PCMI Summer School "Quantum Field Theory and Manifold Invariants" (July 1 -- July 5, 2019). I describe basics of gauge-theoretic approach to construction of invariants of manifolds. The main…

We consider the general nonvanishing, divergence-free vector fields defined on a domain in three space and tangent to its boundary. Based on the theory of finite type invariants, we define a family of invariants for such fields, in the…

A simple d-dimensional lattice model is proposed, incorporating some degree of frustration and thus capable of describing some aspects of molecular orientation in covalently bound molecular solids. For d=2 the model is shown to be…

We give a simple, geometric and explicit construction of 3d untwisted Dijkgraaf-Witten theory with defects of all codimensions. It is given as a symmetric monoidal functor from a defect cobordism category into the category of…

We give an interpretation of Yetter's Invariant of manifolds $M$ in terms of the homotopy type of the function space $TOP(M,B(G))$, where $G$ is a crossed module and $B(G)$ is its classifying space. From this formulation, there follows that…

The goal of the paper is to categorify Dijkgraaf-Witten theory, aiming at providing foundation for a direct construction of Dijkgraaf-Witten theory as an Extended Topological Quantum Field Theory. The main tool is cohomology with…

We construct the Gromov-Witten invariants of moduli of stable morphisms to $\Pf$ with fields. This is the all genus mathematical theory of the Guffin-Sharpe-Witten model, and is a modified twisted Gromov-Witten invariants of $\Pf$. These…

Let $S$ be a smooth del Pezzo surface over a field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2, 3$. We define an invariant in the Grothendieck-Witt ring $GW(k)$ for "counting" rational curves in a curve class $D$ of fixed positive degree (with respect to…

We construct an invariant of closed ${\rm spin}^c$ 4-manifolds using families of Seiberg-Witten equations. This invariant is formulated as a cohomology class on a certain abstract simplicial complex consisting of embedded surfaces of a…

We give invariants of flat bundles over 4-manifolds generalizing a result by Chaidez, Cotler, and Cui (Alg. \& Geo. Topology '22). We utilize a structure called a Hopf $G$-triplet for $G$ a group, which generalizes the notion of a Hopf…

We prove that smooth projective varieties with equivalent derived categories have isogenous (and sometimes isomorphic) Picard varieties. In particular their irregularity and number of independent vector fields are the same. This is turn…

The $\mathbb{Z}$-genus of a link $L$ in $S^3$ is the minimal genus of a locally flat, embedded, connected surface in $D^4$ whose boundary is $L$ and with the fundamental group of the complement infinite cyclic. We characterise the…

We discuss the general properties of the theory of joint invariants of a smooth Lie group action in a manifold. Many of the known results about differential invariants, including Lie's finiteness theorem, have simpler versions in the…

A Group category is a spherical category whose simple objects are invertible. The invariant of Turaev-Viro with this particular category is in fact the invariant of Dijkgraaf-Witten whose the group and the 3-cocycle is given by the simple…

The values of the Witten invariants, $I_W$, of the lens space $L(p, 1)$ for SU(2) at level $k$ are obtained for arbitrary $p$. A duality relation for $I_W$ when $p$ and $k$ are interchanged, valid for asymptotic $k$, is observed. A method…

Recently, a class of solvable interaction round the face lattice models (IRF) were constructed for an arbitrary rational conformal field theory (RCFT) and an arbitrary field in it. The Boltzmann weights of the lattice models are related in…

To solve MHD problems within the framework of the theory of two-scale mean fields, it is important to study the invariants of magnetic lines. Such invariants are constructed on the basis of invariants of classical links, which must satisfy…
