Bailey Pairs for the Tetrahedron Index
Abstract
In this work, we develop new Bailey pairs for the pentagon identity satisfied by the tetrahedron index, expressible in terms of q-series. Since the tetrahedron index underlies topological invariants of 3-manifolds and related knots, our construction may offer a new framework to deriving knot invariants through the Bailey chain.
