A version of Kirby calculus for spin and framed three-manifolds is given and is used to construct invariants of spin and framed three-manifolds in two situations. The first is ribbon V-categories which possess odd degenerate objects. This case includes the quantum group situations corresponding to t
We show that the recently found generalized Jones and Homily polynomials for links in Z h • [0, 1], where E h is a closed oriented Riemann surface, may be also obtained by the canonical quantlzation of a Chern-Simons non-Abelian gauge theory on E h x [0, 1]. As a particular case, one may consider th
