چکیده

Let L ⊆ C be a lattice and consider the compact complex torus XL = C/L. Let Γ 6 Aut(L) ∩ SL2m C be a (finite) group of automorphisms of L whose action on C is semifree (i.e., free away from 0). X L consists of finitely many isolated fixed points, so the orbifold XL/Γ has finitely many isolated singularities. We can resolve these singularities by ‘blowing up’ each of the singular points. In fact, we can do this once and for all by blowing up the fixed point set X L and then passing to a quotient manifold. Locally, at each p ∈ X L choose a holomorphic chart z = (z1, . . . , z2m) : U −→ U ′ ⊆ C with z(p) = 0. Then define Ũ = {(u, [w]) ∈ U × CP2m−1 : zi(u)wj = zj(u)wi}. This can be extended to define a submanifold of XL × CP2m−1.

Quantum Supergroups And Topological Invariants of Three - Manifolds

The Reshetikhin Turaeve approach to topological invariants of three manifolds is generalized to quantum supergroups. A general method for constructing three manifold invariants 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 i...

The Homology of Kummer Manifolds

The theory of Kummer surfaces is a classical topic in algebraic geometry.1 A generalization to higher dimensions has been given by W. Wirtinger.2 The varieties introduced by Wirtinger may be called Kummer varieties and have algebraic dimension n with 22n ordinary double points. If these double points are desingularized in a standard manner by means of "dilatations," one obtains nonsingular vari...

Generalized Neuwirth Groups and Seifert Fibered Manifolds

The topological properties of the generalized Neuwirth groups are discussed. For example, we shall demonstrate that the group ? k n is the fundamental group of the Seifert bered space | {z } n times): Moreover we discuss some other invariants and algebraic properties of the above groups.

On the Topological Invariants of Multidimensional Manifolds

In the domain of analysis situs Poincaré has recently brought us an abundance of new results, but at the same time he has raised an abundance of new questions that still await settlement. Thus while we have known, for a long time, a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a one-toone continuous map between two two-dimensional manifolds, at present such a system of condit...

Estimating Turaev-Viro three-manifold invariants is universal for quantum computation

The Turaev-Viro invariants are scalar topological invariants of compact, orientable 3-manifolds. We give a quantum algorithm for additively approximating Turaev-Viro invariants of a manifold presented by a Heegaard splitting. The algorithm is motivated by the relationship between topological quantum computers and (2 + 1)dimensional topological quantum field theories. Its accuracy is shown to be...
