Topological quantum field theories (aspects of differential topology) (57R56)

Abstract: Almost integral TQFTs were introduced by Gilmer [Duke Math. J. 125 (2004) 389--413]. The aim of this paper is to modify the TQFT of the category of extended 3-cobordisms given by Turaev (in his book: Quantum invariants of knots and 3-manifolds) to obtain an almost integral TQFT.

Review text

Let \(D\) be a Dedekind domain contained in a ring \(K\). A TQFT \((T, \tau)\) with base ring \(K\) is called almost (\(D\)-) integral if there exists some elements \(\varepsilon\in K\) such that \(\varepsilon_\tau(M)\) is in \(D\) for any closed connected cobordism \(M\). In this paper, by restricting the colors for ribbon graphs embedded in extended 3-cobordisms, the authors show that a modified version of the TQFT \((T_r^g, \tau_r^g)\) is almost integral.
