Computing Turaev-Viro invariants for 3-manifolds

We give a simple surface interpretation for each summand in the evaluation of Turaev-Viro invariants, for the case of small (up to eighth) roots of unity. From this interpretation follows an efficient scheme to compute these invariants. Extensive tables relative to a rich variety of 3-manifolds are explicitly presented.
