Given a group G, we use involutary Hopf G-coalgebras to define a scalar invariant of flat G-bundles over 3-manifolds. When G=1, this invariant equals to the one of 3-manifolds constructed by Kuperberg from involutary Hopf algebras. We give…

In this paper we develop a theory for constructing an invariant of closed oriented 3-manifolds, given a certain type of Hopf algebra. Examples are given by a quantised enveloping algebra of a semisimple Lie algebra, or by a semisimple…

We present a definition of an invariant #(M,H), defined for every finite-dimensional Hopf algebra (or Hopf superalgebra or Hopf object) H and for every closed, framed 3-manifold M. When H is a quantized universal enveloping algebra, #(M,H)…

In the 90s, based on presentations of 3-manifolds by Heegaard diagrams, Kuperberg associated a scalar invariant of 3-manifolds to each finite dimensional involutory Hopf algebra over a field. We generalize this construction to the case of…

We construct an invariant of closed oriented $3$-manifolds using a finite dimensional, involutory, unimodular and counimodular Hopf algebra $H$. We use the framework of normal o-graphs introduced by R. Benedetti and C. Petronio, in which…

For a given group $G$, we construct an invariant of flat $G$-connections on 4-manifolds from a finite type involutory quasitriangular Hopf $G$-algebra. Hopf $G$-algebras are generalizations of Hopf algebras, equipped with gradings by $G$.…

We study Hopf algebras via tools from geometric invariant theory. We show that all the invariants we get can be constructed using the integrals of the Hopf algebra and its dual together with the multiplication and the comultiplication, and…

The invariants of 3-manifolds defined by Kuperberg for involutory Hopf algebras and those defined by the authors for spherical Hopf algebras are the same for Hopf algebras on which they are both defined.

We construct a new type of quantum invariant of closed framed $3$-manifolds with the vanishing first Betti number. The invariant is defined for any finite dimensional Hopf algebra, such as small quantum groups, and is based on ideal…

The Kuperberg invariant is a topological invariant of closed 3-manifolds based on finite-dimensional Hopf algebras. In this paper, we initiate the program of constructing 4-manifold invariants in the spirit of Kuperberg's 3-manifold…

For a given finite dimensional Hopf algebra $H$ we describe the set of all equivalence classes of cocycle deformations of $H$ as an affine variety, using methods of geometric invariant theory. We show how our results specialize to the…

An example of a finite dimensional factorizable ribbon Hopf C-algebra is given by a quotient H=u_q(g) of the quantized universal enveloping algebra U_q(g) at a root of unity q of odd degree. The mapping class group M_{g,1} of a surface of…

A handlebody-knot is a handlebody embedded in the 3-sphere. We establish a uniform method to construct invariants for handlebody-links. We introduce the category $\mathcal{T}$ of handlebody-tangles and present it by generators and…

This paper studies invariants of 3-manifolds derived from certain fin ite dimensional Hopf algebras. The invariants are based on right integrals for these algebras. It is shown that the resulting class of invariants is distinct from the…

We introduce an approach to produce gauge invariants of any finite-dimensional Hopf algebras from the Kuperberg invariants of framed 3-manifolds. These invariants are generalizations of Frobenius-Schur indicators of Hopf algebras. The…

In this paper, we show that Hennings construction of invariants of framed links and 3-manifolds obtained from Hopf algebras can also be carried out for some algebraic quantum groups.

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 study Kuperberg invariants for sutured manifolds in the case of a semidirect product of an involutory Hopf superalgebra $H$ with its automorphism group $\text{Aut}(H)$. These are topological invariants of balanced sutured 3-manifolds…

We construct a scalar invariant of flat principal 2-bundles over 3-manifolds, with structure 2-group $\mathcal{G}$, from an involutory Hopf algebra graded by $\mathcal{G}$. Expressing $\mathcal{G}$ in terms of a crossed module $\chi$ and…

We show that the Kuperberg invariant of the Weeks manifold with any framing is a gauge invariant of finite-dimensional Hopf algebras, which provides the first example of gauge invariants of general finite-dimensional Hopf algebras via…
