Quantum dilogarithm

introduction

• 양자 다이로그 함수(quantum dilogarithm)

 

 

근사 공식

• \(q=e^{-t}\) and as the t goes 0 (i.e. as q goes to 1)
  

 

\(\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{q^{\frac{A}{2}n^2+cn}}{(q)_n}\sim\exp(\frac{C}{t})\)

Knot and invariants from quantum dilogarithm

• [Kashaev1995] 
  
• a link invariant, depending on a positive integer parameter N, has been defined via three-dimensional interpretation of the cyclic quantum dilogarithm
  
• The construction can be considered as an example of the simplicial (combinatorial) version of the three-dimensional TQFT
  
• this invariant is in fact a quantum generalization of the hyperbolic volume invariant.
  
• It is possible that the simplicialTQFT, defined in terms of the cyclic quantum dilogarithm, can be associated with quantum 2 + 1-dimensional gravity.
