Algebra of quantum ${\cal C}$-polynomials
abstract
Knot polynomials colored with symmetric representations of $SL_q(N)$ satisfy difference equations as functions of representation parameter, which look like quantization of classical ${\cal A}$-polynomials. However, they are quite difficult to derive and investigate. Much simpler should be the equations for coefficients of differential expansion nicknamed quantum ${\cal C}$-polynomials. It turns out that, for each knot, one can actually derive two difference equations of a finite order for these coefficients, those with shifts in spin $n$ of the representation and in $A=q^N$. Thus, the ${\cal C}$-polynomials are much richer and form an entire ring. We demonstrate this with the examples of various defect zero knots, mostly discussing the entire twist family.

3d-3d correspondence for knot complements with finite and large $N$
The SU(N) homological block in inverted-Habiro form equals a half-index of an explicit 3d N=2 theory for the figure-eight and the two trefoil knots, with a conjectural all-knot extension.

Two roles of Alexander in two Kashaev phases
Alexander polynomials appear in two opposite roles in two Kashaev phases of Chern-Simons theory due to co-existing branches in the quasiclassical limit with non-trivial versus vanishing classical actions.

More on Kashaev limits of the quantum $A$-polynomials
In the Kashaev limit the non-homogeneous quantum A-polynomial splits into phases tied to zero action and deformed hyperbolic volume, with a byproduct expectation that the classical A-polynomial at L=1 is proportional ...
