Building Blocks in Turaev-Viro Theory

چکیده
Abstract We study the form of the Turaev-Viro partition function Z(M) for different 3-manifolds with boundary. We show that for S2 boundaries Z(M) factorizes into a term which contains the boundary dependence and another which depends only on the topology of the underlying manifold. From this follows easily the formula for the connected sum of two manifolds Z(M#N ). For general Tg boundaries this factorization holds only in a particular case.

2D Conformal Field Theories and Holography
It is known that the chiral part of any 2d conformal field theory defines a 3d topological quantum field theory: quantum states of this TQFT are the CFT conformal blocks. The main aim of this paper is to show that a similar CFT/TQFT relation exists also for the full CFT. The 3d topological theory that arises is a certain “square” of the chiral TQFT. Such topological theories were studied by Tur...
متن کامل2 + 1 ) - dimensional topological quantum field theory with a Verlinde basis and Turaev - Viro - Ocneanu invariants of 3 - manifolds
In this article, we discuss a (2 + 1)-dimensional topological quantum field theory, for short TQFT, with a Verlinde basis. As a conclusion of this general theory, we have a Dehn surgery formula. We show that Turaev-Viro-Ocneanu TQFT has a Verlinde basis. Several applications of this theorem are exposed. Based on Izumi’s data of subfactors, we list several computations of Turaev-Viro-Ocneanu inv...

متن کاملAdmissible Colourings of 3-Manifold Triangulations for Turaev-Viro Type Invariants
Turaev Viro invariants are amongst the most powerful tools to distinguish 3-manifolds: They are implemented in mathematical software, and allow practical computations. The invariants can be computed purely combinatorially by enumerating colourings on the edges of a triangulation T. These edge colourings can be interpreted as embeddings of surfaces in T. We give a characterisation of how these e...
