A reciprocity formula from abelian BF and Turaev–Viro theories
In this article we show that the use of Deligne–Beilinson cohomology in the context of the U(1) BF theory on a closed 3-manifold M yields a discrete ZN BF theory whose partition function is an abelian TV invariant of M. By comparing the expectation values of the U(1) and ZN holonomies in both BF the...
