Kirby-Melvin's $τ_r^{'}$ and Ohtsuki's $τ$ for Lens spaces
Abstract
Description
In this note, we first derive explicit formulas for Kirby-Melvin's three-manifold invariants $τ_r^{'}$ for all Lens spaces from our results for another set of invariants $ξ_r$ defined by the first author. Then, as a corollary, we obtain formulas for Othsuki's $τ$ for all Lens spaces.
