Semi-classical analysis of curve operators in TQFT defended in July 2015.
My thesis, done under the supervision of Julien Marché, studies the asymptotics of quantum invariants.
A first part derives from skein calculus some asymptotic formulae for matrix coefficients of curve operators in TQFT.
A second part uses geometric quantization and semi-classical analysis to establish an asymptotic expansion for a large class of quantum invariants which is closely related to the Witten conjecture.
