Abstract:
We use Witten's volume formula to calculate the cohomological
pairings of the moduli space of
at SU(3) connections. The cohomological
pairings of moduli space of
at SU(2) connections is known from the work of
Thaddeus-Witten-Donaldson, but for higher holonomy groups these pairings
are largely unknown. We make some progress on these problems, and show
that the pairings can be expressed in terms of multiple zeta functions.
