Quantum-liquid TQFTs as complete invariants of bordisms
Quantum-liquid TQFTs as complete invariants of bordisms
Let and be -morphisms in the oriented bordism category . Completeness conjecture. If and are not equivalent, then there exists a symmetric monoidal functor
such that and are not isometric in . This asserts that oriented extended TQFTs arising from quantum liquids separate nonequivalent bordisms and therefore provide a complete invariant for the topological information of compact smooth -manifolds; the source gives no resolution.
