| contents | J.H.C. Whitehead introduced the concept of crossed modules in the early 20th century. These crossed modules are crucial for algebraic models of 2-type homotopy, which involve connected spaces with no higher than second-degree homotopy groups. They consist of two groups and certain relations between them, with known connections to 2-groups.
By employing crossed modules, we can develop invariants for closed 3-dimensional and 4-dimensional manifolds. The validity of these invariants was established in a paper authored by F.Girelli, H.Pfeiffer, and E.M.Popescu([4]).
Essentially, these invariants involve counting correct colors over the triangulation of a closed manifold. Interestingly, I've discovered that these invariants can also be applied to compact 3-dimensional manifolds with boundaries. Therefore, in this paper, I intend to demonstrate how these invariants can be utilized for compact 3-dimensional manifolds with boundaries, including the complements of knots. |
