abstract
We study resurgence properties of partition function of SU(2) Chern-Simons theory (WRT invariant) on closed three-manifolds. We check explicitly that in various examples Borel transforms of asymptotic expansions posses expected analytic properties. In examples that we study we observe that contribution of irreducible flat connections to the path integral can be recovered from asymptotic expansions around abelian flat connections. We also discuss connection to Floer instanton moduli spaces, disk instantons in 2d sigma models, and length spectra of "complex geodesics" on the A-polynomial curve.

An extended square matrix of (x,q)-series indexed by boundary parabolic SL2(C) flat connections completely describes the resurgent structure, Stokes constants, and Borel transform of Chern-Simons perturbation theory at the trivial flat connection for hyperbolic knot complements.
Resurgent cyclic orbits' algebraic structure plus the leading q-series term determines the asymptotic growth exponent of dual q-series coefficients, which equals an effective central charge c_eff in a related 3d N=2 QFT.
Extends operator formalism of closed topological strings to derive all-order trans-series solutions for real topological strings, with disk invariants as Stokes constants and numerical checks on local P2.
Mock theta functions admit a unique resurgent continuation across their natural boundary, with the continuation fixed by their Mordell-Appell integrals via rotated Laplace contours.
It conjectures that the E_2-category arising from BV-BFV quantization of Chern-Simons on the disk supplies the modular tensor category for Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants, with derived character stacks Loc_G(Σ) mediating an equivalence of (3-2-1)-extended TQFTs.
