Scientific paper

The Ponzano-Regge model of three-dimensional quantum gravity is well-defined
when the observables satisfy a certain condition involving the twisted
cohomology. In this case, the partition function is defined in terms of the
Reidemeister torsion. Some consequences for the special cases of planar graphs
and knots are given.
