6 M ay 2 00 6 K - invariants of hyperbolic 3 - manifolds

چکیده
We introduce an invariant of the hyperbolic 3-manifolds which appears in the K-theory of certain C*-algebras. Namely, such an invariant is essentially the integral order in an algebraic number field K with a fixed equivalence class of ideals in the ring of integers of K. The C*-algebras in question are the crossed product C*-algebras attached to the monodromy transformation of the 3-manifolds which fiber over the circle. Our approach bridges topology with the number field theory. In particular, we conjecture a volume formula for the 3-manifolds in terms of the arithmetic of the field K.

O ct 2 00 6 K - invariants of hyperbolic 3 - manifolds Igor Nikolaev
An invariant of the 3-dimensional manifolds appearing in the Ktheory of certain operator algebras is introduced. The operator algebra in question is a crossed product C-algebra attached to the monodromy of a 3-dimensional manifold M which fibers over the circle. The invariant is a triple (Λ, i, [I]) consisting of an order Λ in an algebraic number field K, an embedding i : K → R and an equivalen...

We construct a new family, indexed by the odd integers N ≥ 1, of (2 + 1)-dimensional quantum field theories called quantum hyperbolic field theories (QHFT), and we study its main structural properties. The QHFT are defined for (marked) (2 + 1)-bordisms supported by compact oriented 3-manifolds Y with a properly embedded framed tangle LF and an arbitrary PSL(2,C)character ρ of Y \LF (covering, f...

We study gauge theories based on abelian p− forms on real compact hyperbolic manifolds. The tensor kernel trace formula and the spectral functions associated with free generalized gauge fields are analyzed.

More recently, the local well-posedness of the Cauchy problem of the Schrödinger flow of maps from R2 to H2, the hyperbolic 2-space, was proved in [28]. In this paper, we display a blow-up result of solutions to such a Schrödinger flow. This shows a widely believed assertion that solutions to Schrödinger flows may blow up in finite time in general when the dimensions of starting manifolds are g...
متن کاملDehn filling of cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds with geodesic boundary
We define for each g > 2 and k > 0 a set Mg,k of orientable hyperbolic 3manifolds with k toric cusps and a connected totally geodesic boundary of genus g. Manifolds in Mg,k have Matveev complexity g+k and Heegaard genus g+1, and their homology, volume, and Turaev-Viro invariants depend only on g and k. In addition, they do not contain closed essential surfaces. The cardinality of Mg,k for a fix...
