Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants and indefinite false theta functions for plumbing indefinite H-graphs
Abstract
Gukov--Pei--Putrov--Vafa conjectured the existence of q -series whose radial limits are Witten--Reshetikhin--Turaev invariants and called them homological blocks. For weakly negative definite plumbed 3-manifolds, Gukov--Pei--Putrov--Vafa and Gukov-Manolescu constructed homological blocks. In this paper, we construct indefinite false theta functions which are candidates of homological blocks for some plumbed 3 -manifolds which are not weakly negative definite. Moreover we prove that, for the Poincar\'e homology sphere, our indefinite false theta function coincides with the original homological block.
