Frobenius-Schur Indicators and the Mapping Class Group of the Torus

preprint2021arXivOpen access

Abstract

The Turaev-Viro state sum invariant can be extended to 3-manifolds with free boundaries. We use this fact to describe generalized Frobenius-Schur indicators as Turaev-Viro invariants of solid tori. This provides a geometric understanding of the SL(2,Z)\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})-equivariance of these indicators.
