On Two Invariants of Three Manifolds from Hopf Algebras
Liang Chang, Shawn X. Cui
We prove a 20-year-old conjecture concerning two quantum invariants of three manifolds that are constructed from finite dimensional Hopf algebras, namely, the Kuperberg invariant a…

State Sum Invariants of Three Manifolds from Spherical Multi-fusion Categories
Shawn X. Cui, Zhenghan Wang
We define a family of quantum invariants of closed oriented -manifolds using spherical multi-fusion categories. The state sum nature of this invariant leads directly to -…
