dc.descriptionThis is the first in a series of papers where we will derive invariants of three-manifolds and framed knots in them from the geometry of a manifold pseudotriangulation put in some way in a four-dimensional Euclidean space. Thus, the elements of the pseudotriangulation acquire Euclidean geometric values such as volumes of different dimensions and various kinds of angles. Then we construct an acyclic complex made of differentials of these geometric values, and its torsion will lead, depending on the specific kind of this complex, to some manifold or knot invariants. In this paper, we limit ourselves to constructing a simplest kind of acyclic complex, from which a three-manifold invariant can be obtained.
