arXiv:hep-th/9904060 · doi:10.1002/(SICI)1521-3978(20001)48:1/3<5::AID-PROP5>3.0.CO;2-N
Abstract
A description of the one-loop approximation formula for the partition function of a three-dimensional abelian version of the Donaldson-Witten theory is proposed. The one-loop expression is shown to contain such topological invariants of a three-dimensional manifold M like the Reidemeister-Ray-Singer torsion and Betti numbers.
