%0 Journal Article %T Dijkgraaf-Witten invariants of surfaces and projective representations of groups %A Vladimir Turaev %J Mathematics %D 2007 %I arXiv %R 10.1016/j.geomphys.2007.08.009 %X We compute the Dijkgraaf-Witten invariants of surfaces in terms of projective representations of groups. As an application we prove that the complex Dijkgraaf-Witten invariants of surfaces of positive genus are positive integers. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0706.0160v2
