Iron Rings, Doctor Honoris Causa Raoul Bott, Carl Herz, and a Hidden Hand
P. Robert Kotiuga
The degree of Doctor of Sciences, honoris causa, was conferred on Raoul Bott by McGill University in 1987. Much of the work to make this happen was done by Carl Herz. Some of the a…
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…
Surjectivity for Hamiltonian Loop Group Spacees
Raoul Bott, Susan Tolman, Jonathan Weitsman
Let be a compact Lie group, and let denote the corresponding loop group. Let be a weakly symplectic Banach manifold. Consider a Hamiltonian action of on $(X,ω…
Equivariant characteristic classes in the Cartan model
Raoul Bott, Loring W. Tu
This note shows the compatibility of the differential geometric and the topological formulations of equivariant characteristic classes for a compact connected Lie group action.
Integral Invariants of 3-Manifolds. II
Raoul Bott, Alberto S. Cattaneo
This note is a sequel to our earlier paper of the same title [dg-ga/9710001] and describes invariants of rational homology 3-spheres associated to acyclic orthogonal local systems.…
Integral Invariants of 3-Manifolds
R. Bott, A. S. Cattaneo
This note describes an invariant of rational homology 3-spheres in terms of configuration space integrals which in some sense lies between the invariants of Axelrod and Singer and…
