3d-3d correspondence for knot complements with finite and large $N$

For $G=SU(N)$ at finite and large $N$, with a totally symmetric representation, we realize the homological block $F_K$ for a knot complement $S^3 \backslash K$, given in the form of the inverted Habiro series, as a half-index of a 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theory $T[M_3]$ by studying some examples, which we expect to extend to general knots.

From the half-index expression, it is also possible to realize the colored HOMFLY-PT polynomial by taking a certain set of poles.

Through the half-index realization, we describe a method for obtaining the $G=SU(N)$ homological block and its $a$-deformed version for $S^3 \backslash K$ from a Habiro series expression for the colored HOMFLY-PT polynomial.

We also discuss some properties of partition functions for arbitrary $N$.
