Flat structure was introduced by K. Saito and his collaborators at the end of 1970's. Independently the WDVV equation arose from the 2D topological field theory. B. Dubrovin unified these two notions as Frobenius manifold structure. In this paper, we study isomonodromic deformations of an Okubo system, which is a special kind of systems of linear differential equations. We show that the space of independent variables of such isomonodromic deformations can be equipped with a Saito structure (without a metric), which was introduced by C. Sabbah as a generalization of Frobenius manifold. As its consequence, we introduce flat basic invariants of well-generated finite complex reflection groups and give explicit descriptions of Saito structures (without metrics) obtained from algebraic solutions to the sixth Painlevé equation.

We discuss the relation between different quantization approaches to topological field theories by deriving a connection between Bogomol’nyi and Langevin equations for stochastic processes which evolve towards an equilibrium state governed by the topological charge.

Some tetrahedra in SUk(2) Chern-Simons-Witten theory are computed. The results can be used to compute an arbitrary tetrahedron inductively by fusing with the fundamental representation. The results obtained are in agreement with those of quantum groups. By associating a (finite) topological field theory (FTFT) to every rational conformal field theory (RCFT), we show that the pentagon and hexagon equations in RCFT follow directly from some skein relations in FTFT. By generalizing the operation of surgery on links in FTFT, we also derive an explicit expression for the modular transformation matrix S(k) of the one-point conformal blocks on a torus in RCFT and the equations satisfied by S(k), in agreement with those required in RCFT. The implication of our results on the general program of classifying RCFT is also discussed.

AbstractWe test the validity of a possible schematization of DNA structure and dynamics based on the Chern–Simons theory, that is a topological field theory mostly considered in the context of effective gravity theories. By means of the expectation value of the Wilson Loop, derived from this analogue gravity approach, we find the point-like curvature of genomic strings in KRAS human gene and COVID-19 sequences, correlating this curvature with the genetic mutations. The point-like curvature profile, obtained by means of the Chern–Simons currents, can be used to infer the position of the given mutations within the genetic string. Generally, mutations take place in the highest Chern–Simons current gradient locations and subsequent mutated sequences appear to have a smoother curvature than the initial ones, in agreement with a free energy minimization argument.
