The expectation values of these observables are cohomology classes of the space of imbeddings of a circle. One of the resulting theories discussed in the paper has only trivalent interactions and, irrespective of the actual dimension, looks like a 3-dimensional Chern-Simons theory.13 pagesQuantum AlgebraHigh Energy Physics - TheoryMathematical PhysicsLoop observables for BF theories in any dimension and the cohomology of knotstext
