Introduction to Combinatorial Torsions de Vladimir Turaev

Introduction to Combinatorial Torsions

Autor Vladimir Turaev
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2001
Offers an introduction to combinatorial torsions of cellular spaces and manifolds with emphasis on torsions of 3-dimensional manifolds. This book describes the results of G Meng, C H Taubes and the author on the connections between the refined torsions and the Seiberg-Witten invariant of 3-manifolds.

Recenzii

"[The book] contains much of the needed background material in topology and algebra…Concering the considerable material it covers, [the book] is very well-written and readable."
