A Quantum trace map for 3-manifolds
Abstract
We define a quantum trace map from the skein module of a 3-manifold with torus boundary components to a module (left and right quotient of a quantum torus) constructed from an ideal triangulation. Our map is a 3-dimensional version of the well-known quantum trace map on surfaces introduced by Bonahon and Wong and further developed by L\e.
