  • Monoidal Categories and Topological Field Theory
    Alexis Virelizier / Vladimir Turaev
    This monograph is devoted to monoidal categories and their connections with 3-dimensional topological field theories. Starting with basic definitions, it proceeds to the forefront of current research.Part 1 introduces monoidal categories and several of their classes, including rigid, pivotal, spherical, fusion, braided, and modular categories. It then presents deep theorems of ...

  • Torsions of 3-dimensional Manifolds
    Vladimir Turaev
    From the reviews: 'This is an excellent exposition about abelian Reidemeister torsions for three-manifolds.' -Zentralblatt Math 'This monograph contains a wealth of information many topologists will find very handy. ...Many of the new points of view pioneered by Turaev are gradually becoming mainstream and are spreading beyond the pure topology world....

  • Torsions of 3-dimensional Manifolds
    Vladimir Turaev
    Three-dimensional topology includes two vast domains: the study of geometric structures on 3-manifolds and the study of topological invariants of 3-manifolds, knots, etc. This book belongs to the second domain. We shall study an invariant called the maximal abelian torsion and denoted T. It is defined for a compact smooth (or piecewise-linear) manifold of any dimension and, mor...

  • Introduction to Combinatorial Torsions
    Vladimir Turaev
    This book is an extended version of the notes of my lecture course given at ETH in spring 1999. The course was intended as an introduction to combinatorial torsions and their relations to the famous Seiberg-Witten invariants. Torsions were introduced originally in the 3-dimensional setting by K. Rei­ demeister (1935) who used them to give a homeomorph...
