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…
Finite type invariants of 3-manifolds
Thang T. Q. Le
This is a survey article on finite type invariants of 3-manifolds written for the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics to be published by Elsevier.
An analytic version of the Melvin-Morton-Rozansky Conjecture
Stavros Garoufalidis, Thang T. Q. Le
To a knot in 3-space, one can associate a sequence of Laurent polynomials, whose th term is the th colored Jones polynomial. The Volume Conjecture for small angles states tha…
On the Colored Jones Polynomial and the Kashaev invariant
Vu Huynh, Thang T. Q. Le
We express the colored Jones polynomial as the inverse of the quantum determinant of a matrix with entries in the -Weyl algebra of -operators, evaluated at the trivial functi…
On the volume conjecture for small angles
Stavros Garoufalidis, Thang TQ Le
Given a knot in 3-space, one can associate a sequence of Laurrent polynomials, whose th term is the th colored Jones polynomial. The Generalized Volume Conjecture states that…
Quantum Invariants of Periodic Links and Periodic 3-Manifolds
Qi Chen, Thang Le
We give criteria for framed links and 3-manifolds to be periodic of prime order. As applications we show that the Poincare sphere is of periodicity 2, 3, 5 only and the Brieskorn s…
