Abstract:
The Reshetikhin-Turaev approach to topological invariants of three-manifolds is generalized to quantum supergroups. A general method for constructing three-manifold invariant is developed, which requires only the study of the eigenvalues of certain central elements of the quantum supergroup in irreducible representations. To illustrate how the method works, Uq(gl(2|1)) at odd roots of unity is studied in detail, and the corresponding topological invariants are obtained.

Path-integral quantization of Chern-Simons field theory in the Hamiltonian formalism is developed. A derivation of Verlinde algebra in topological quantum mechanics arises and three-manifold invariants are recovered.

Abstract:
A new, formal, noncombinatorial approach to invariants of three-dimensional manifolds of Reshetikhin, Turaev and Witten in the framework of nonperturbative topological quantum Chern–Simons theory, corresponding to an arbitrary compact simple Lie group, is presented. A direct implementation of surgery instructions in the context of quantum field theory is proposed. An explicit form of the specialization of the invariant to the group SU(2) is shown.

Abstract:
According to Sir Michael Atiyah [At], the study of topological quantum field theory is equivalent to the study of invariant quantities associated to three-dimensional manifolds. Although one has long considered the classical homology and cohomology structures and their extremely successful generalizations, the real subject of the Atiyah assertion is the new invariants proposed by Witten associated to the Jones polynomials of classical knots and links in the three-dimensional sphere. There have been many manifestations described by Reshetikhin & Turaev [Re1&2], Turaev & Viro [TV], L

Abstract:
Lickorish’s method for constructing topological invariants of three-manifolds is generalized to the quantum supergroup setting. An invariant is obtained by applying this method to the Kauffman polynomial arising from the vector representation of U q( osp (1|2)). A transparent proof is also given showing that this invariant is equivalent to the U q( osp (1|2)) invariant obtained in an earlier publication.

Abstract:
We define a family of quantum invariants of closed oriented [Formula: see text]-manifolds using spherical multi-fusion categories (SMFCs). The state sum nature of this invariant leads directly to [Formula: see text]-dimensional topological quantum field theories ([Formula: see text]s), which generalize the Turaev–Viro–Barrett–Westbury ([Formula: see text]) [Formula: see text]s from spherical fusion categories. The invariant is given as a state sum over labeled triangulations, which is mostly parallel to, but richer than the [Formula: see text] approach in that here the labels live not only on

Abstract:
The aim of the first part of this paper is to make some reflections on the role of geometrical and topological concepts in the developments of theoretical physics, especially in gauge theory and string theory, and we show the great significance of these concepts for a better understanding of the dynamics of physics. We will claim that physical phenomena essentially emerge from the geometrical and topological structure of space–time. The attempts to solve one of the central problems in 20th theoretical physics, i.e. how to combine gravity and the other forces into an unitary theoretical explana

Abstract:
The general method of Reshetikhin and Turaev is followed to develop topological invariants of closed, connected, orientable 3-manifolds from a new class of algebras called pseudomodular Hopf algebras. Pseudo-modular Hopf algebras are a class of Z_2-graded ribbon Hopf algebras that generalise the concept of a modular Hopf algebra. The quantum superalgebra Uq(osp(1|2n)) over C is considered with q a primitive Nth root of unity for all integers N &gt = 3. For such a q, a certain left ideal I of U_q(osp(1|2n)) is also a two-sided Hopf ideal, and the quotient algebra U^(N)_q(osp(1|2n)) = U_q(os
