Donaldson Invariants and Their Generalizations from AKSZ Topological Field Theories
arXiv:1104.2100
Abstract
Observable structures of a topological field theory of AKSZ type are analyzed. From a double (or multiple) complex structure of observable algebras, new topological invariants are constructed. Especially, Donaldson polynomial invariants and their generalizations are constructed from a topological field theory of AKSZ type in 4 dimensions recently proposed.
