In this paper we define a class of state-sum invariants of closed oriented piecewise linear 4-manifolds using finite groups. The definition of these state-sums follows from the general abstract construction of 4-manifold invariants using spherical 2-categories, as we defined in an earlier paper. We

## Abstract We consider low‐dimensional groups and group‐actions that are definable in a supersimple theory of finite rank. We show that any rank 1 unimodular group is (finite‐by‐Abelian)‐by‐finite, and that any 2‐dimensional asymptotic group is soluble‐by‐finite. We obtain a field‐interpretation t

Quantum groups and ribbon G-categories
✍ Thang Le; Vladimir Turaev 📂 Article 📅 2003 🏛 Elsevier Science 🌐 English ⚖ 198 KB

For a group G, the notion of a ribbon G-category was introduced in Turaev (Homotopy ÿeld theory in dimension 3 and crossed group-categories, preprint, math. GT/0005291) with a view towards constructing 3-dimensional homotopy quantum ÿeld theories (HQFTs) with target K(G; 1). We discuss here how to d

We investigate the group Pic(DM) of isomorphism classes of invertible objects in the derived category of O-modules for a commutative unital ringed Grothendieck topos (E;O) with enough points. When the ring Op has connected prime ideal spectrum for all points p of E we show that Pic(D M ) is naturall
