Cohomology determinants of compact 3-manifolds
arXiv:math/0611248
Abstract
We give definitions of cohomology determinants for compact, connected, orientable 3-manifolds. We also give formulae relating cohomology determinants before and after gluing a solid torus along a torus boundary component. Cohomology determinants are related to Turaev torsion, though the author hopes that they have other uses as well.
