Laplace transform and universal sl(2) invariants
Anna Beliakova, Christian Blanchet, Thang Le
We develop a Laplace transform method for constructing universal invariants of 3-manifolds. As an application, we recover Habiro's theory of integer homology 3-spheres and extend i…

Skein construction of idempotents in Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebras
Anna Beliakova, Christian Blanchet
We give skein theoretic formulas for minimal idempotents in the Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebras. These formulas are then applied to derive various known results needed in the constr…

Refined invariants and TQFT's from Homfly skein theory
Anna Beliakova
We work in the reduced SU(N,K) modular category as constructed recently by Blanchet. We define spin type and cohomological refinements of the Turaev-Viro invariants of closed orien…
