[ Abstract ]
I started my research from surgery theory of knots and 3-manifolds. This is related to finite type invariants, which was studied intensively at that time. I obtained a result which characterises the information that is carried by finite type invariants in terms of clasper surgery. After that, I have studied quantum invariants of integral homology spheres, Kirby calculus of framed links, quantum invariants of bottom tangles, functorialization of Le-Murakami-Ohtsuki invariants, quantum fundamental groups and quantum representation variety of 3-manifolds, traces of categorified quantum groups, etc. I would like to reflect on these studies and also discuss future prospects.
