Dilogarithme Quantique et 6j-Symboles Cycliques

Publication date 26 February 2002

Abstract: Let

m a t h c a l W_{N}

be a quantized Borel subalgebra of

U_{q} (s l (2, m c))

, specialized at a primitive root of unity

o m e g a = e x p (2 i p i / N)

of odd order

N > 1

. One shows that the

6 j

-symbols of cyclic representations of

m a t h c a l W_{N}

are representations of the canonical element of a certain extension of the Heisenberg double of

m a t h c a l W_{N}

. This canonical element is a twisted

q

-dilogarithm. In particular, one gives explicit formulas for these

6 j

-symbols, and one constructs partial symmetrizations of them, the c-

6 j

-symboles. The latters are at the basis of the construction of the quantum hyperbolic invariants of 3-manifolds.
