$e^{2\pi ic_{-}/8}$ and $e^{2\pi ic_{-}/24}$ in unitary modular category (UMC)
Background
Unitary modular categories (UMC) do not capture the central charge $c_{-}$ of the topological quantum field theory (TQFT). However, there is a relation that fixes,
$c_{-}\bmod
8$:
\begin{e …

Freed-Hopkins-Lurie-Teleman topological boundary conditions v.s. Lagrangian subspace
This question concerns the comparison of topological boundary conditions of TQFTs on a manifold with some boundary.
For example, we can consider defining the TQFT on a $D^3$ ball with a topological bo …

Define the 3d Chern-Simons TQFT on a discrete simplicial complex
Question: What is the challenge and the current status to define the 3d Chern-Simons(-Witten) (CSW) theory on a simplicial complex or on a discrete lattice? (Or is there a no-go or an obstruction behi …

Does there exist a discrete gauge theory as a TQFT detecting the figure-8 knot?
My question: Does there exist a discrete gauge theory as TQFT detecting the figure-8 knot?
By detecting, I mean that computing the path integral (partition function with insertions of the knot …
