The trace is defined when |t| is neither 0 nor 1, and at certain roots of unity. At t = - 1, the trace is integration against the symplectic measure on the SU(2) character variety of the fundamental group of F.14 pagesGeometric TopologyQuantum Algebra57m27The Yang-Mills Measure in the Kauffman Bracket Skein Moduletext
