We work in the general framework of an arbitrary modular category as in [V. G. Turaev, Quantum invariants of knots and 3--manifolds, de Gruyter Stud. Math. 18, Walter de Gruyter (1994)], and the invariants are expressed in terms of the S- and T-matrices of the modular category. In another direction we derive a rational surgery formula, which states how the RT-invariants behave under rational surgery along framed links in arbitrary closed oriented 3-manifolds with embedded colored ribbon graphs. The surgery formula is used to give another derivation of the RT-invariants of Seifert manifolds with orientable base.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-11-06T11:57:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57M27", "17B37", "18D10", "57M25" ], "keywords": [ "rational surgery formula", "reshetikhin-turaev invariants", "seifert manifolds", "arbitrary modular category", "embedded colored ribbon graphs" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
