Topological Quantum Field Theory and the Nielsen-Thurston classification of M(0,4)
Jorgen Ellegaard Andersen, Gregor Masbaum, Kenji Ueno
We show that the Nielsen-Thurston classification of mapping classes of the sphere with four marked points is determined by the quantum SU(n)-representations, for any fixed integer…
Problems on invariants of knots and 3-manifolds
J. E. Andersen, N. Askitas, D. Bar-Natan +57
This is a list of open problems on invariants of knots and 3-manifolds with expositions of their history, background, significance, or importance. This list was made by editing ope…
Matrix-tree theorems and the Alexander-Conway polynomial
Gregor Masbaum
This talk is a report on joint work with A. Vaintrob [arXiv:math.CO/0109104 and math.GT/0111102]. It is organised as follows. We begin by recalling how the classical Matrix-Tree Th…
Milnor numbers, Spanning Trees, and the Alexander-Conway Polynomial
Gregor Masbaum, Arkady Vaintrob
We study relations between the Alexander-Conway polynomial and Milnor higher linking numbers of links from the point of view of finite-type (Vassiliev) invariants. We gi…
A New Matrix-Tree Theorem
Gregor Masbaum, Arkady Vaintrob
The classical Matrix-Tree Theorem allows one to list the spanning trees of a graph by monomials in the expansion of the determinant of a certain matrix. We prove that in the case o…
Involutions on Moduli Spaces and Refinements of the Verlinde Formula
Jorgen Ellegaard Andersen, Gregor Masbaum
The moduli space of semi-stable rank 2 bundles with trivial determinant over a complex curve carries involutions naturally associated to 2-torsion points on the Jacobian of the…
