Higher-rank surgery formula for Z^G\hat{Z}^G

About 7 years old · traced to

Let K⊂S3K\subset S^3 be a knot, let GG be a root system with positive roots Δ+\Delta^+, and let Lp/r(b)\mathcal{L}_{p/r}^{(b)} denote the surgery transform appearing in the formula. Higher-rank surgery formula. Whenever the right-hand side makes sense,

Z^bG(Sp/r3(K))≅Lp/r(b)[∏α∈Δ+(xα2r−x−α2r)FKG(x,q)].\hat{Z}_b^G\big(S_{p/r}^3(K)\big)\cong\mathcal{L}_{p/r}^{(b)}\left[\prod_{\alpha\in\Delta^+}\left(x^{\frac{\alpha}{2r}}-x^{-\frac{\alpha}{2r}}\right)F_K^G(\mathbf{x},q)\right].

The formula is stated as a higher-rank analogue of the SU(2){\rm SU}(2) surgery formula. It is proved for knots and 3-manifolds represented by negative-definite plumbings, while its general scope is left conjectural.
