On two approaches to 3-dimensional TQFTs (1006.3501v5)
Published 17 Jun 2010 in math.GT and math.QA
Abstract: Let C be a spherical fusion category. We prove that the Turaev-Viro-Barrett-Westbury state sum invariant of 3-manifolds derived from C is equal to the Reshetikhin-Turaev surgery invariant of 3-manifolds derived from Z(C), where Z(C) is the Drinfeld-Joyal-Street center of C.
