What is the motivation for a Frobenius manifold?
A Frobenius manifold is a type of manifolds with extra structure.
The main examples are quantum cohomology (viewed as a space itself), GBV algebras, the ``Saito'' examples arising from singularities ( …

$U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ is to knot theory as $U_q(\hat{\mathfrak{g}})$ is to $?$
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebra over the complex numbers, e.g. $\mathfrak{sl}_n$.
Then every representation $\DeclareMathOperator\Rep{Rep}V\in \Rep U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ …

Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants from extended 3d TQFTs
Attached to any object $V\in \mathcal{C}$ of a ribbon category $\mathcal{C}$, Reshetikhin and Turaev have defined knot invariants
$$\tau_V(K)\ \in\ \text{End}_{\mathcal{C}}(1_{\mathcal{C}})$$
