The Grassmann-algebraic invariant of 4-dimensional Pachner moves
Let a triangulated -manifold with boundary be given. For every inner edge , integrate over the Grassmann-algebra expression obtained by multiplying the weights over all 4-simplices , multiplying by an element , and integrating over the variables associated with every inner tetrahedron , with denominator . Let be the differential operators associated with the inner 2-faces , and define
The Grassmann-algebraic Pachner-move invariant. The expression
remains invariant under moves and . This is proposed for systems of deformation parameters satisfying the paper's consistency equations; one stated possibility is to take all such parameters equal to . The claim is preliminary because the choice of interesting consistent systems remains open, and the displayed local identities have only partial verification.
