Dijkgraaf-Witten Type Invariants of Seifert Surfaces in 3-Manifolds
arXiv:1507.00949
Abstract
We introduce defects, with internal gauge symmetries, on a knot and Seifert surface to a knot into the combinatorial construction of finite gauge-group Dijkgraaf-Witten theory. The appropriate initial data for the construction are certain three object categories, with coefficients satisfying a partially degenerate cocycle condition.
