Almost integral TQFTs from simple Lie algebras

Qi Chen and Thang T Q Le

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 5 (2005) 1291–1314

arXiv: math.QA/0408357

Abstract

Almost integral TQFTs were introduced by Gilmer [Duke Math. J. 125 (2004) 389–413]. The aim of this paper is to modify the TQFT of the category of extended 3–cobordisms given by Turaev (in his book: Quantum invariants of knots and 3–manifolds) to obtain an almost integral TQFT.
