Gukov-Pei-Putrov-Vafa conjecture for $SU(N)/\mathbb{Z}_m$

Abstract

In our earlier work, we studied the $\hat{Z}$-invariant(or homological blocks) for $SO(3)$ gauge group and we found it to be same as $\hat{Z}^{SU(2)}$. This motivated us to study the $\hat{Z}$-invariant for quotient groups $SU(N)/\mathbb{Z}_m$, where $m$ is some divisor of $N$. Interestingly, we find that $\hat{Z}$-invariant is independent of $m$.
