SUMMARY:Integrality in analytically continued Chern-Simons theory - Pavel 
 Putrov (Institute for Advanced Study\, Princeton)

DESCRIPTION:Physics predicts existence of homological invariants of closed
  oriented 3-manifolds similar to Khovanov-Rozansky homology of knots in a 
 3-sphere. The decategorified version of such invariants are q-series with 
 integer coefficients. In my talk I will discuss properties of such invaria
 nts\, how they are related to Chern-Simons partition function (WRT invaria
 nt) analytically continued w.r.t. level\, and give some examples. If time 
 permits I will also discuss how resurgence&nbsp\;theory can be used to con
 struct such invariants and relation to open topological strings.
