The physical 3d $mathcal{N}=2$ theory T[Y] was previously used to predict the existence of some 3-manifold invariants $hat{Z}_{a}(q)$ that take the form of power series with integer coefficients, converging in the unit disk. Their radial limits at the roots of unity should recover the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants. In this paper we discuss how, for complements of knots in $S^3$, the analogue of the invariants $hat{Z}_{a}(q)$ should be a two-variable series $F_K(x,q)$ obtained by parametric resurgence from the asymptotic expansion of the colored Jones polynomial. The terms in this series should satisfy a recurrence given by the quantum A-polynomial. Furthermore, there is a formula that relates $F_K(x,q)$ to the invariants $hat{Z}_{a}(q)$ for Dehn surgeries on the knot. We provide explicit calculations of $F_K(x,q)$ in the case of knots given by negative definite plumbings with an unframed vertex, such as torus knots. We also find numerically the first terms in the series for the figure-eight knot, up to any desired order, and use this to understand $hat{Z}_a(q)$ for some hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

In this note, we revisit the $Theta$-invariant as defined by R. Bott and the first author. The $Theta$-invariant is an invariant of rational homology 3-spheres with acyclic orthogonal local systems, which is a generalization of the 2-loop term of the Chern-Simons perturbation theory. The $Theta$-invariant can be defined when a cohomology group is vanishing. In this note, we give a slightly modified version of the $Theta$-invariant that we can define even if the cohomology group is not vanishing.

Let $Sigma$ be a compact connected oriented 2-dimensional manifold with non-empty boundary. In our previous work, we have shown that the solution of generalized (higher genus) Kashiwara-Vergne equations for an automorphism $F in {rm Aut}(L)$ of a free Lie algebra implies an isomorphism between the Goldman-Turaev Lie bialgebra $mathfrak{g}(Sigma)$ and its associated graded ${rm gr}, mathfrak{g}(Sigma)$. In this paper, we prove the converse: if $F$ induces an isomorphism $mathfrak{g}(Sigma) cong {rm gr} , mathfrak{g}(Sigma)$, then it satisfies the Kashiwara-Vergne equations up to conjugation. As an application of our results, we compute the degree one non-commutative Poisson cohomology of the Kirillov-Kostant-Souriau double bracket. The main technical tool used in the paper is a novel characterization of conjugacy classes in the free Lie algebra in terms of cyclic words.

The Slope Conjecture proposed by Garoufalidis asserts that the degree of the colored Jones polynomial determines a boundary slope, and its refinement, the Strong Slope Conjecture proposed by Kalfagianni and Tran asserts that the linear term in the degree determines the topology of an essential surface that satisfies the Slope Conjecture. Under certain hypotheses, we show that twisted, generalized Whitehead doubles of a knot satisfies the Slope Conjecture and the Strong Slope Conjecture if the original knot does. Additionally, we provide a proof that there are Whitehead doubles which are not adequate.

Let $mathcal{C}(mathfrak{g},k)$ be the unitary modular tensor categories arising from the representation theory of quantum groups at roots of unity for arbitrary simple finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra $mathfrak{g}$ and positive integer levels $k$. Here we classify nondegenerate fusion subcategories of the modular tensor categories of local modules $mathcal{C}(mathfrak{g},k)_R^0$ where $R$ is the regular algebra of Tannakian $text{Rep}(H)subsetmathcal{C}(mathfrak{g},k)_text{pt}$. For $mathfrak{g}=mathfrak{so}_5$ we describe the decomposition of $mathcal{C}(mathfrak{g},k)_R^0$ into prime factors explicitly and as an application we classify relations in the Witt group of nondegenerately braided fusion categories generated by the equivalency classes of $mathcal{C}(mathfrak{so}_5,k)$ and $mathcal{C}(mathfrak{g}_2,k)$ for $kinmathbb{Z}_{geq1}$.

Let a contact 3-manifold $(Y, xi_0)$ be the link of a normal surface singularity equipped with its canonical contact structure $xi_0$. We prove a special property of such contact 3-manifolds of "algebraic" origin: the Heegaard Floer invariant $c^+(xi_0)in HF^+(-Y)$ cannot lie in the image of the $U$-action on $HF^+(-Y)$. It follows that Karakurt's "height of $U$-tower" invariants are always 0 for canonical contact structures on singularity links, which contrasts the fact that the height of $U$-tower can be arbitrary for general fillable contact structures. Our proof uses the interplay between the Heegaard Floer homology and N'emethi's lattice cohomology.

Using this ribbon superalgebra we construct its universal invariant of links. We use it to construct an invariant of $3$-manifolds of Hennings type.
