Hardness of Computation of Quantum Invariants on 3-Manifolds with Restricted Topology

Authors: Henrique Ennes and Clément Maria

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)


Abstract
Quantum invariants in low-dimensional topology offer a wide variety of valuable invariants about knots and 3-manifolds, presented by explicit formulas that are readily computable. Their computational complexity has been actively studied and is tightly connected to topological quantum computing. In this article, we prove that for any 3-manifold quantum invariant in the Reshetikhin-Turaev model, there is a deterministic polynomial time algorithm that, given as input an arbitrary closed 3-manifold M, outputs a closed 3-manifold M' with the same quantum invariant, such that M' is hyperbolic, contains no low genus embedded incompressible surface, and is presented by a strongly irreducible Heegaard diagram. Our construction relies on properties of Heegaard splittings and the Hempel distance. At the level of computational complexity, this proves that the hardness of computing a given quantum invariant of 3-manifolds is preserved even when severely restricting the topology and the combinatorics of the input. This positively answers a question raised by Samperton [Samperton, 2023].

Localized Geometric Moves to Compute Hyperbolic Structures on Triangulated 3-Manifolds

Authors: Clément Maria and Owen Rouillé

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 244, 30th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2022)


Abstract
A fundamental way to study 3-manifolds is through the geometric lens, one of the most prominent geometries being the hyperbolic one. We focus on the computation of a complete hyperbolic structure on a connected orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold with torus boundaries. This family of 3-manifolds includes the knot complements. This computation of a hyperbolic structure requires the resolution of gluing equations on a triangulation of the space, but not all triangulations admit a solution to the equations. In this paper, we propose a new method to find a triangulation that admits a solution to the gluing equations, using convex optimization and localized combinatorial modifications. It is based on Casson and Rivin’s reformulation of the equations. We provide a novel approach to modify a triangulation and update its geometry, along with experimental results to support the new method.
