This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support research at Purdue University focused on developing non-semisimple quantum invariants of three- and four-dimensional manifolds. The $273,232 award, effective September 15, 2023 through August 31, 2026, will enable the principal investigator to systematically search for new non-semisimple Hopf triplets, refine procedures to derive invariants of complex spin structures, and extend the construction to the notion of trialgebras. This work aims to unify various 3D quantum invariants and produce modular tensor categories from 3-manifolds. The project's broader impacts include mentoring students and postdocs, organizing scientific conferences, and fostering collaboration to advance quantum topology research.
