Abstract

We calculate the homological blocks for Seifert manifolds from the exact expression for the G=SU(N)G=SU(N) Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants of Seifert manifolds obtained by Lawrence, Rozansky, and Mari\~no. For the G=SU(2)G=SU(2) case, it is possible to express them in terms of the false theta functions and their derivatives. For G=SU(N)G=SU(N), we calculate them as a series expansion and also discuss some properties of the contributions from the abelian flat connections to the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants for general NN. We also provide an expected form of the SS-matrix for general cases and the structure of the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants in terms of the homological blocks.
