Abstract
In this paper we will promote the 3D index of an ideal triangulation of an oriented cusped –manifold (a collection of –series with integer coefficients, introduced by Dimofte, Gaiotto and Gukov) to a topological invariant of oriented cusped hyperbolic –manifolds. To achieve our goal we show that (a) admits an index structure if and only if is –efficient and (b) if is hyperbolic, it has a canonical set of –efficient ideal triangulations related by – and – moves which preserve the 3D index. We illustrate our results with several examples.
