Quantum Invariants of Ribbon Surfaces in -Dimensional -Handlebodies
Anna Beliakova, Marco De Renzi, Quentin Faes
We use unimodular ribbon categories to construct quantum invariants of ribbon surfaces in -dimensional -handlebodies up to -isotopy. In the process, we recover invariants…

On the degree-two part of the associated graded of the lower central series of the Torelli group
Quentin Faes, Gwenael Massuyeau, Masatoshi Sato
We consider the associated graded of the lower central series $\mathcal{I} = Î_1 \mathcal{I} \supset Î_2 \mathcal{I…
