Description
I will discuss how parametric resurgence recovers many
of the basic properties of networks and some examples that arise
from q-hypergeometric functions, which play an important role in
Chern-Simons theory and open topological strings. I will explain
how to construct these networks from some basic building blocks
coming from the Faddeev quantum dilogarithm and the geometry
of thimbles in an appropriate homology theory. This is based on joint
work with Andersen-Fantini-Kontsevich.
