An invariant of rational homology 3-spheres via vector fields. (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, we define an invariant of rational homology 3-spheres with
values in a space $\\mathcal A(\\emptyset)$ of Jacobi diagrams by using
vector fields.
The construction of our invariant is a generalization of both that of
the Kontsevich-Kuperberg-Thurston invariant $z^{KKT}$
and that of Fukaya and Watanabe's Morse homotopy invariant $z^{FW}$.
As an application of our invariant, we prove that $z^{KKT}=z^{FW}$ for
integral homology 3-spheres.
