Three Dimensional Chern - Simons Theory as a Theory of Knots and Links
Three dimensional SU(2) Chern-Simons theory has been studied as a topological field theory to provide a field theoretic description of knots and links in three dimensions. A systematic method has been developed to obtain the link-invariants within this field theoretic framework. The monodromy properties of the correlators of the associated Wess-Zumino SU(2) k conformal field theory on a two-dim...
متن کاملTwo soliton solutions to the three dimensional gravitational Hartree equation
We construct non dispersive two soliton solutions to the three dimensional gravitational Hartree equation whose trajectories asymptotically reproduce the nontrapped dynamics of the gravitational two body problem.
متن کاملThree-dimensional strings I. Classical theory
I consider a three-dimensional string theory whose action, besides the standard area term, contains one of the form ∫ Σ ǫμνσX dX ∧ dX. In the case of closed strings this extra term has a simple geometrical interpretation as the volume enclosed by the surface. The associated variational problem yields as solutions constant mean curvature surfaces. One may then show the equivalence of this equati...
متن کاملA Three - Dimensional Conformal Field Theory
This talk is based on a recent paper 1 of ours. In an attempt to understand three-dimensional conformal field theories, we study in detail one such example – the large N limit of the O(N) non-linear sigma model at its non-trivial fixed point – in the zeta function regularization. We study this on various three-dimensional manifolds of constant curvature of the kind Σ × R (Σ = S 1 × S 1 , S 2 , ...
متن کاملQuasi-Quantum Groups, Knots, Three-Manifolds, and Topological Field Theory
We show how to construct, starting from a quasi-Hopf algebra, or quasi-quantum group, invariants of knots and links. In some cases, these invariants give rise to invariants of the three-manifolds obtained by surgery along these links. This happens for a finite-dimensional quasi-quantum group, whose definition involves a finite group G, and a 3-cocycle ω, which was first studied by Dijkgraaf, Pa...
