BPS Invariants for a Knot in Seifert Manifolds

Abstract

We calculate homological blocks for a knot in Seifert manifolds when the gauge group is $SU(N)$. We obtain the homological blocks with a given representation of the gauge group from the expectation value of the Wilson loop operator by analytically continuing the Chern-Simons level. We also obtain homological blocks with the analytically continued level and representation for a knot in the Seifert integer homology spheres.
