An Introduction to Geometric Quantization and Witten's Quantum Invariant
arXiv:1902.10813
Abstract
This note, in a rather expository manner, serves as a conceptional introduction to the certain underlying mathematical structures encoding the geometric quantization formalism and the construction of Witten's quantum invariants, which is in fact organized in the language topological quantum field theory.
