By methods similar to those used by L. Jeffrey [L. C. Jeffrey, Chern–Simons–Witten invariants of lens spaces and torus bundles, and the semiclassical approximation, Commun. Math. Phys.147 (1992) 563–604], we compute the quantum SU (N)-invariants for mapping tori of trace 2 homeomorphisms of a genus 1 surface when N = 2, 3 and discuss their asymptotics. In particular, we obtain directly a proof of a version of Witten's asymptotic expansion conjecture for these 3-manifolds. We further prove the growth rate conjecture for these 3-manifolds in the SU(2) case, where we also allow the 3-manifolds to contain certain knots. In this case we also discuss trace -2 homeomorphisms, obtaining — in combination with Jeffrey's results — a proof of the asymptotic expansion conjecture for all torus bundles.

Abstract Let $\pi$ be a group satisfying the Farrell–Jones conjecture and assume that $B\pi$ is a 4-dimensional Poincaré duality space. We consider topological, closed, connected manifolds with fundamental group $\pi$ whose canonical map to $B\pi$ has degree 1, and show that two such manifolds are s-cobordant if and only if their equivariant intersection forms are isometric and they have the same Kirby–Siebenmann invariant. If $\pi$ is good in the sense of Freedman, it follows that two such manifolds are homeomorphic if and only if they are homotopy equivalent and have the same Kirby–Siebenmann invariant. This shows rigidity in many cases that lie between aspherical 4-manifolds, where rigidity is expected by Borel’s conjecture, and simply connected manifolds where rigidity is a consequence of Freedman’s classification results.

SynopsisWe give examples of symplectic manifolds which are also non-trivial principal torus-bundles with Lagrangian fibres. These bundles are examples of spaces with an obstruction to the global existence of action-angle variables.
