description We study q-series-valued invariants of 3-manifolds that depend on the choice of a root system . This is a natural generalization of the earlier works by Gukov-Pei-Putrov-Vafa [arXiv:1701.06567] and Gukov-Manolescu [arXiv:1904.06057], where they focused on the = SU(2) case. Although a full mathematical definition for these ''invariants'' is lacking yet, we define Ẑ for negative definite plumbed 3-manifolds and FGK for torus knot complements. As in the = SU(2) case by Gukov and Manolescu, there is a surgery formula relating FGK to Ẑ of a Dehn surgery on the knot K. Furthermore, specializing to symmetric representations, FGK satisfies a recurrence relation given by the quantum A-polynomial for symmetric representations, which hints that there might be HOMFLY-PT analogues of these 3-manifold invariants.

I would like to thank my advisor Sergei Gukov for his invaluable guidance, as well as Francesca Ferrari, Sarah Harrison, Ciprian Manolescu, and Nikita Sopenko for helpful conversations. Special thanks go to Nikita Sopenko for his kind help with Mathematica coding. I would also like to thank the anonymous referees for their useful comments that helped to improve the paper.
