A topological quantum field theory (or topological field theory or TQFT) is a quantum field theory which computes topological invariants.
A topological quantum field theory (or topological field theory or TQFT) is a quantum field theory which computes topological invariants.
It's related to knot theory and the theory of four-manifolds in algebraic topology, and to the theory of moduli spaces in algebraic geometry in mathematics.
