SEMINARIO DE ÁLGEBRA DEL IMERL: Quantum invariants of 3-manifolds and TQFTs I : construction

Fecha de inicio

En usa serie de dos charlas, este viernes vamos a tener el placer de escuchar al profesor Alain Bruguières de la Universidad de Montpellier que nos hablará sobre:

Título: Quantum invariants of 3-manifolds and TQFTs I : construction


Resumen: I will explain how certain types of categories give rise to invariants of 3-manifolds, both closed (scalar invariants) and with boundaries (TQFTs). More precisely, spherical categories give rise to the Turaev-Viro invariants, which are achiral,  and modular categories, to the Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants, which are chiral.

I will also explain how the modularity condition can be relaxed, based on Mickael Lallouche's thesis.

Los esperamos a todos el viernes 22 de setiembre a las 11:15 en el salón de seminarios del IMERL.
