The partition functions can be expressed using only classical and one-loop perturbative invariants of PSL(N, ℂ) Chern-Simons theory around irreducible flat connections on M3. Using mathematical results on the asymptotics of the invariants, we compute the twisted partition functions in the large N limit including perturbative corrections to all orders in 1/N . Surprisingly, the perturbative expansion terminates at finite order. The leading part of the partition function is of order N3 and agrees with the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the dual black holes. The subleading part, in particular the log N -terms in the field theory partition function is found to precisely match the one-loop quantum corrections in the dual eleven dimensional supergravity. The field theory results of other terms in 1/N provide a stringent prediction for higher order corrections in the holographic dual, which is M-theory.


Introduction
The mathematical equivalence of a field theory to a theory containing gravity in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence [1] has always been viewed as potentially a direct way to uncover intricate and intuition-defying aspects of gravity. First among these are issues related to black hole physics and, in particular, the microscopic understanding of black hole entropy. Recently a remarkable result has been obtained providing a microscopic understanding of the entropy of certain magnetically charged, asymptotically AdS 4 black holes in the context of AdS 4 /CFT 3 [2]. This impressive achievement has been extended to various situations including dyonic black holes [3], black holes with hyperbolic horizons [4], black holes in massive IIA theory [5,6] and to certain black holes in universal sectors of higherdimensional embeddings [7]; for a review and a complete list of references, see [8].

JHEP03(2020)164
Most of these results have been propelled by an improved understanding of threedimensional N = 2 supersymmetric field theories thanks to supersymmetric localization, see [9][10][11] for the original developments and [12][13][14][15] for some recent relevant applications. The stringy origin of many of those field theories can be tracked to M2 and D2 brane configurations. For example, the marquee case worked out in detail in [2] exploits the duality between a Chern-Simons matter theory known as ABJM [16] and its eleven dimensional gravity dual arising from M2 branes. Another class of 3d supersymmetric field theories, which we are interested in here, arises as the low energy limit of M5 branes wrapping a hyperbolic 3-manifold [17]. In this manuscript we pursue the counting of microstates for the case of wrapped M5 branes, we will encounter several advantages along the way over M2-brane setups with which the reader might be more familiar.
The advantages are mainly rooted in the 3d-3d correspondence, which relates the 3d field theory on N wrapped M5's to pure Chern-Simons theory defined on the hyperbolic 3-manifold. This correspondence enables us to calculate the exact N dependence of the partition functions, see [18,19] for reviews on the subject. Most of the results on topologically twisted indices of 3d theories have been obtained at leading order in N [20,21]. One of the key problems plaguing a sub-leading understanding of N = 2 partition functions is that they are given in terms of solutions to certain Bethe-Ansatz equations, and there is no suitable framework to calculate the sub-leading contributions. Indeed, only a few partial results for sub-leading structures have been obtained and they involved substantial numerical efforts [22][23][24]. Let us emphasize that going beyond the leading order for the field theory partition function is not merely of academic interest; it promises to clarify intricate aspects of gravity on the holographic side.
The M5 brane has long been one of the most intriguing and least understood objects in string theory. For M5 branes wrapping a hyperbolic 3-manifold, the holographic description as well as its place in the context of the 3d-3d correspondence has been elucidated in a series of works [25][26][27]. In those works, the leading large N behavior of supersymmetric quantities, such as the squashed 3-sphere partition function and twisted partition functions, were obtained using 3d-3d relations and matched nicely to the supergravity computations. In this manuscript we explore subleading corrections to the twisted partition functions, and we present the exact subleading correction terms as the main result. The exact computation is made possible since 3d-3d relations connect the twisted partition functions to simple topological invariants on 3-manifolds, for which we employ certain mathematical results. We also provide a gravitational understanding of logarithmic terms in the subleading corrections.
The rest of the manuscript is organized as follows. We briefly review basic aspects of holography of wrapped M5 branes in section 2. We cover various entries in the AdS/CFT dictionary and present some of the gravitational backgrounds relevant to our work, we also review the field theory formulation of the relevant partition functions. In section 3 we present some of the details of Chern-Simons theory that facilitate the computation of various ingredients in the partition functions via the 3d-3d correspondence. Section 4 develops the large N expansion in some detail. In section 5 we present the one-loop effective action around the black hole background and show agreement of the log N terms with the JHEP03(2020)164  Table 1.

Holography for wrapped M5-branes
In this section we briefly review the AdS 4 /CFT 3 correspondence associated to wrapped M5-branes on a compact (closed) hyperbolic 3-manifold, M 3 = H 3 /Γ. To help acquaint the reader with the M5 duality we present a comparison with the more standard form of AdS 4 /CFT 3 based on M2-branes probing a cone over a Sasakian-Einstein 7-manifold Y 7 in table 1. A peculiarity of AdS 4 /CFT 3 from M5-branes is that we can use the 3d-3d correspondence [17, which provides an alternative way of computing some supersymmetic quantities, using geometry. Moreover, this geometrical perspective becomes a conduit to the possibility of exact results in N . On the field theory side, we consider a large class of 3d N = 2 superconformal field theories (SCFTs) known as T N [M 3 ] arising from wrapped M5-branes on a compact hyperbolic 3-manifold M 3 . (2.1) The system preserves 4 supercharges and the infra-red (IR) world-volume theory generically has 3d N = 2 supersymmetry. The field theoretic way to understand this situation is: To preserve some supersymmetries, we perform a partial topological twisting along M 3 using the SO(3) subgroup of the SO(5) R-symmetry of the 6d theory. The topolgical twisting preserves 4 supercharges and SO(2) R-symmetry out of the SO(5). For generic JHEP03(2020)164 N , the 3d theory has only the U(1) = SO(2) R-symmetry and no other flavor symmetry. Practically, the absence of flavor symmetry implies that in the partition functions there are no extra fugacities and, therefore, we are limited to the universal sector. This is precisely the situation described in [7], albeit from a different embedding point of view, as we will discussed below.

Holographic dual
To anticipate details of the holographic description we start in eleven dimensions where the M5-brane naturally resides. Moreover, to incorporate the 3d hyperbolic manifold M 3 we consider its cotangent bundle denoted by T * M 3 which is a local Calabi-Yau. Here Pernici-Sezgin (PS) solutions [50] are magneto-vac solutions of 7d SU(2)-gauged supergravity, and they include an AdS 4 whose 11d uplift is the gravity dual we are looking for. In 11d, the solution takes the form of a warped product AdS 4 × M 3 ×S 4 with 4-form fields turned on along various directions, see e.g. [26] for details. TheS 4 is a squashed 4-sphere with U(1) isometry which corresponds to U(1) R-symmetry in the field theory.
The explicit construction of the gravity solutions exploits the fact that locally the hyperbolic 3-manifold M 3 looks like H 3 . However, globally we need to consider the quotient H 3 /Γ. We will explain how the group Γ is to be obtained from the construction of the hyperbolic 3-manifold we use in other sections where we consider closed 3-manifold M 3 obtained by a Dehn surgery along a knot K. For the impatient reader we anticipate that Γ = π 1 (M 3 ).
The maximally supersymmetric 7d SO(5)-gauged supergravity is a consistent truncation of 11d supergravity, and in turn it can be again consistently truncated to a 4d N = 2 gauged supergravity via a consistent truncation [51]. The Einstein-graviphoton part of the action is simply This is also the universal sector discussed recently in [7] in the context of microscopic counting of black hole entropy. Here the crucial difference is the embedding into M-theory and, more precisely, the scaling of Newton's constant with the number of branes N . In the action above F is the field strength for U(1) gauge field in AdS 4 which couples to the U(1) R-symmetry in the boundary CFT. The 4d Newton constant G 4 after the consistent truncation is related to N in the following way [26] . . (2.6)

JHEP03(2020)164
The standard embedding, or the consistent truncation leading to the above pure N = 2 supergravity Lagrangian can also be obtained in the context of M2 solutions where U(1) R is realized geometrically as the Reeb vector of Y 7 , which is a Sasaki-Einstein space so always written as a U(1) bundle over a Kähler-Einstein 6d space [52]. In the consistent truncation of [26], however, the U(1) R direction is identified with an unbroken isometry of the squashedS 4 .

Twisted partition functions dual to wrapped M5 branes
Let us now discuss the field theory dual of some of the entries in the AdS/CFT dictionary pertaining to wrapped M5 branes. We are particularly interested in a certain class of partition functions when the field theory is not placed on the typical R 1,2 but on a more general background. Namely, we are interested in placing the effective 3d field theory on a circle bundle over a genus−g Riemann surface Σ g . The approach to this problem requires that we preserve supersymmetry on curved backgrounds M ν R p,g . Later, we will restrict our attention to the case when p ∈ 2Z and ν R = 1 2 . Our goal is to understand the holographic dictionary using twisted partition functions Z ν R g,p [15,53] which are defined on the curved background M p,g which denotes a S 1 -bundle of degree p over a Riemmann surface Σ g of genus g, that is, The metric is where z,z are local coordinates on the Riemann surface and ψ ∼ ψ + 2π parameterizes the S 1 -fiber of length β. The 1-form a on Σ g has curvature F a := da normalized as To preserve some supersymmetries, we turn on the following background gauge field coupled to U(1) R-symmetry.
with proper quantization conditions for (ν R , n R ) [54]. Here π * a is a 1-form on M g,p given as the pull-back of a using the projection map π : M g,p → Σ g . Large gauge transformations relate For even p, Z 2 ⊂ H 1 (M g,p , Z 2 ) and we can consider two types of supersymmetric backgrounds with different choice of spin-structures p ∈ 2Z : (ν R , n R ) = (0, g − 1) or 1 2 , g − 1 + p 2 . (2.12)

JHEP03(2020)164
The ν R = 0 corresponds to the usual periodic boundary condition while ν R = 1 2 corresponds to anti-periodic boundary condition under the Z 2 . For odd p, only the background with ν R = 0 is allowed. When p = 0, the partition functions on the two curved backgrounds have the following interpretation Here j 3 is the Lorentz spin and R is the charge of U(1) R-symmetry. We focus on the case p ∈ 2Z ≥0 where there are two possible supersymmetric choices of ν R , 0 or 1 2 , depending on spin-structure. We further restrict our consideration to the case ν R = 1 2 : (2.14) For p = 0 case, the partition function determined by this background or boundary conditions counts ground states of the 3d theory on a topologically twisted Riemann surface Σ g with signs.
The twisted partition functions for general N = 2 theory can be written as [15,53,55] where α labels vacua of the 3d N = 2 on R 2 × S 1 , called Bethe-vacua, and H and F are called 'handle-gluing' and 'fibering' operators, respectively.

Taub-Bolt solutions in AdS 4
According to the standard dictionary of AdS/CFT, the twisted partition functions at leading order in the 1/N expansion can be holographically computed from the on-shell gravitational action

Magnetically charged black hole in AdS 4
For p = 0, the twisted partition functions have an alternative interpretation on the holographic dual side. It counts the microstates of a magnetically charged black hole in AdS 4 with signs.
The gauged supergravity admits the following 1/2 BPS magnetically charged asymptotically AdS 4 black hole solution [56][57][58][59] Thanks to the consistent truncation discussed previously, any solution of the 4d action above can be embedded in 11d in a way that admits an M5 brane interpretation. Note that this is the starting point of [7], which considered what we call the M2 embedding into 11d supergravity. We assume g > 1 and ds 2 (Σ g ) is a uniform hyperbolic metric on a Riemann surface Σ g of genus g normalized as vol(Σ g ) = 4π(g − 1). The black hole solution interpolates asymptotically AdS 4 with conformal boundary R t × Σ g and AdS 2 × Σ g near-horizon geometry: The Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the black hole is  Bethe vacuum α Irreducible flat connection A α Fibering operator F α M3 (τ adj , N ) Table 2. A 3d-3d dictionary for basic ingredients in twisted ptns computation. Tor On the other hand, the twisted partition function for p = 0 computes (2.24) Although there could be huge cancellations between states with R ∈ 2Z and R ∈ 2Z+1, the twisted index turns out to reproduce the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of AdS 4 black hole at large N for various models of AdS 4 /CFT 3 [2][3][4][5][6][7]. It would be interesting to see if they also match even at finite N . One of the goals of this paper is to explore the microstate counting beyond the leading order on the field theory side and subsequently perform a one-loop effective action calculation on the gravity side that leads to the logarithmic in N term.

3d-3d relation for twisted partition functions
In this section, we relate the twisted partition functions Z to simple topological quantities on the 3-manifold M 3 via a 3d-3d relation. The final expression is given in (3.10). We derive the 3d-3d dictionary using the explicit field theoretic construction of T N [M 3 ] proposed in [17,34,48]. As an non-trivial consistency check, we confirm the integrality of the topological quantities for the p = 0 case with explicit examples.
The relevant 3d-3d relations are summarized in table 2. The Chern-Simons functional is Extremizing the functional, we have flat-connection equation There is a one-to-one correspondence between

JHEP03(2020)164
For hyperbolic M 3 , it is known that there is a discrete and faithful PSL(2, C) representation ρ geom ρ geom : discrete and faithful PSL(2, C) representation of π 1 (M 3 ) . (3.5) The representation ρ geom above precisely furnishes a geometric construction of the 3manifold as M 3 = H 3 /Γ where the group action Γ is identified with Tor α M 3 (τ, N ) denotes the analytic torsion [60] of an associated vector bundle for PSL(N, C) principal bundle over M 3 in a representation τ ∈ Hom (PSL(N, C) → GL(V τ )), 1 Here ∆ n (τ, A α ) is a Laplacian action on V τ -valued n-form twisted by a PSL(N, C) flat connection A α : Note that d 2 A = 0 for flat connections A. In table 2 τ adj denotes the adjoint representation of PSL(N, C). In the above, det ∆ n is the zeta regularized determinant of the Laplacian ∆ n . The torsion for adjoint representation, τ = τ adj , is related to the one-loop perturbative correction of PSL(N, C) Chern-Simons theory [62,63] (3.9) In the expansion, we are sloppy in the subtle overall factor independent on and use the symbol '∝' instead of '='. Using the relations, we finally have for arbitrary closed hyperbolic 3-manifold M 3 with vanishing H 1 (M 3 , Z N ). 1 The torsion here is the inverse of torsion in some mathematical literatures. For example, TorM 3 (τ ) is 1/TM 3 (τ ) in [61].

Derivation
Some ingredients of the 3d-3d dictionary were originally studied in [28]. In that work, a one-to-one correspondence between PSL(N, C) flat connections on M 3 and Bethe vacua on R 2 × S 1 was found. In the correspondence, the on-shell twisted superpotential of a Bethe vacuum is identified with the classical PSL(N, C) Chern-Simons action of the corresponding flat connection. Combined with the fact that T N [M 3 ] does not have any flavor symmetry, it explains the entry in the dictionary in table 2 for fibering operators modulo a subtle issue which we now discuss. The issue is whether all flat connections are relevant for the 3d theory T N [M 3 ], or only a subset is enough.
: the subtle issue becomes more relevant in 3d-3d correspondence after a concrete and beautiful field theoretic construction, say T DGG N [N], for 3-manifolds N with torus boundaries was proposed in [17]. The construction is based on an ideal triangulation of N and thus can not see all the flat connections on N but only sees irreducible flat connections [39]. The construction has been generalized to the case of closed 3-manifold M 3 (without any boundary), say T DGG [48] by incorporating Dehn filling operation to the Dimofte-Gaiotto-Gukov's construction. The construction for closed 3-manifold also can not see reducible flat connections. Taking the absence of reducible flat connections as a serious problem, it is argued that there should be a better, alternative field theoretic construction, say T full N [M 3 ], which contains all the flat connections on M 3 as Bethe vacua on R 2 × S 1 [39]. Later, concrete field theoretic descriptions of T full N [M 3 ] for certain classes of non-hyperbolic 3-manifolds are proposed in [42,45]. 2 But, as far as we are aware of, there is no known concrete example of T full N [M 3 ] for hyperbolic M 3 . 3 This is rather surprising and disappointing since most 3-manifolds are hyperbolic [64]. If one only wishes to see irreducible flat connections, then the 3d theories corresponding to small hyperbolic 3-manifolds can be easily identified [47]. More recently, the subtle issue was revisited in [48] where it was argued that for hyperbolic 3-manifolds M 3 we do not expect to see all flat connections from a single 3d effective theory T N [M 3 ]. This is because for general hyperbolic 3-manifold, there can be several disconnected components in the vacuum moduli space on R 3 of the 6d twisted compactification along M 3 . Thus, we need to choose a single branch in taking the low energy limit and we only see the single branch in the effective low-dimensional theory. If this argument is correct, the existence of non-trivial superconformal field theory T DGG [M3] theories are rather trivial, either mass gapped topological theory (possible with decoupled free chirals) or a theory with spontaneously broken supersymmetry. 3 One tricky example is the case when 3-manifolds are mapping tori over one-punctured torus with N = 2 as studied in [29,35].

JHEP03(2020)164
the non-existence of T full N [M 3 ] for hyperbolic M 3 . 4 According to [48], the T DGG N [M 3 ] for hyperbolic M 3 is proposed to be the 3d effective theory sitting on a vacuum on R 3 which becomes the 'irreducible' Bethe-vacua on R 2 × S 1 in the compactification R → S 1 . The proposal has been supported by various independent reasonings, such as the resurgence analysis [65] and explicit field theoretic checks [48,[66][67][68] of the symmetry enhancements of T DGG N [M 3 ] theories, which are geometrically predicted from the proposal. We will assume that the T DGG Basic assumption : This assumption has passed large N consistency checks using a squashed 3-sphere partition function [26]. From now on, we will erase the superscript 'DGG' and derive the dictionary for the handle-gluing operator in table 2 using the explicit field theoretic description.
Sketch of the derivation: the 3d-3d dictionary for handle gluing operators in table 2 follows from direct comparison between localization computation using the explicit field theoretic construction [17,34,48] of T N [M 3 ] and the computation of Tor (α) M 3 (τ adj , N ) using a state-integral model. The comparison can be summarized by following diagram: For a given closed hyperbolic 3-manifold, we can decompose it into to basic building blocks, i.e. ideal tetrahedron ∆ and solid-torus S. The topological gluing datum ∼ encodes the field theoretic description of T N [M 3 ], and F and H can be computed using the general localization results. From the gluing datum, on the other hand, state-integral models for PSL(N, C) Chern-Simons partition function are developed and the perturbative invariants, 4 Here, let us speculate on why we can construct T full N [M3] for non-hyperbolic manifolds studied in [42,45]. In that cases, the twisted compactification of 6d (2, 0) theory enjoys an additional flavor symmetry, say U(1) β , due to a Seifert-fibered structure on the 3-manifolds. Thanks to the additional symmetry, we can introduce a suspersymmetry preserving real mass deformation and the continuous deformation may connect all the Bethe-vacua on R 2 × S 1 of the system in a way that the vacua on R 3 after the decompactification has a single component. This might be the reason why we can see all flat-connections from a single effective 3d gauge theory. In 3d-3d correspondence, partition functions of TN [M3] on squashed Lens spaces are identified with partition functions of PSL(N, C) Chern-Simons theories on M3 [40]. Reducible flat connections can not contribute to the complex CS partition functions, since its stabilizer group is noncompact with infinite volume. This is a crucial difference between Chern-Simons theory with compact and non-compact gauge group. For non-hyperbolic 3-manifolds considered in [42,45], one can regularize the infinite volume by turning on real mass, or fugacity, coupled to U(1) β and can see the contributions from reducible flat connections after the regularization. See the section 3 of [19] for more explanations on the point. This is compatible with our speculation that the contributions from reducible flat connections can be seen in a single effective 3d theory only for 3-manifolds with extra structure which gives an additional flavor symmetry U(1) β .

JHEP03(2020)164
S α 0 and S α 1 in (3.9), can be computed from the state-integral models [34,44,[69][70][71][72][73]. The 1-loop part S α 1 is simply related to the torsion Tor (α) M 3 as in (3.9). The comparison is almost straightforward. Our explanation will focus on two subtle points in the 3d-3d dictionary: i) the factor N in the hand-gluing operator H and ii) the reason why we assume the topological condition H 1 (M 3 , Z N ) = 0. These subtle issues play important roles in a) checking integrality of the twisted indices at finite N and b) reproducing correct subleading log N corrections of twisted indices compatible with supergravity analysis at large N . For general hyperboilc 3-manifold M 3 with non-vanishing H 1 (M 3 , Z N ), we know the 3d-3d dictionary should be modified slightly but it is not clearly exactly how.
Some of previous studies on twisted indices in 3d-3d correspondence can be found in [27,45,74]. In particular, in [27], two of the current authors proposed an analogous dictionary for handle-gluing operator. The derivation there simply follows from the combination of two known facts, a) a 3d-3d dictionary for perturbative expansions of holomorphic blocks [28,75] and b) the general relation [53,76] between the first two terms in the perturbative expansion and the two operators, F ν R =1/2 and H ν R =1/2 . In the derivation, however, there are several subtle issues such as i) whether the gauge group of complex Chern-Simons theory is SL(N, C) or PSL(N, C) and ii) what is the correct N -dependent overall factor in the perturbative expansion (3.9). These subtle issues are irrelevant in computing large N leading behavior of the twisted partition functions. Since we are now more interested in subleading 1/N corrections, we need to be extremely careful in the derivation. So, we will derive the 3d-3d relation directly from the field theoretic construction of T N [M 3 ] without relying on indirect relations. From an honest derivation, we clarify two subtle points mentioned above which were not addressed in [27].
Brief review of the construction of T N [M 3 ]: for simplicity, consider hyperbolic 3manifolds obtained by an integral Dehn surgery along a hyperbolic knot K with a slope P . (3.12) Refer to appendix A for the notation of surgery representation of 3-manifold. For the field theoretic description for the T N [M 3 ], we first need to consider the 3d theory T N [S 3 \K; µ] associated with the knot complement constructed in [17,34]. The case when N = 2 was first studied in [17] based on an ideal triangulation of the knot complement For an arbitrary hyperbolic knot K, an ideal triangulation of the knot complement S 3 \K is available in a computer program SnapPy [77]. In [34,72], the construction is generalized to higher N by introducing N -decomposition which replace each ideal tetrahedron ∆ in the triangulation by 1 6 N (N 2 − 1) copies of octahedra ♦: JHEP03(2020)164 The 3d theory constructed from the N -decomposition has an explicit UV field theoretic description whose gauge group is There are also as many as k 6 N (N 2 − 1) chiral fields in the theory T N [S 3 \K, µ] and mixed Chern-Simons levels of the gauge group and superpotential interactions are determined by the N -decomposition. The theory has manifest U(1) N −1 flavor symmetry associated to the torus boundary of the knot complement. In [48], it was argued that the UV symmetry is enhanced to PSU(N ) = SU(N )/Z N in IR. 5 The 3d gauge theory associated to the Dehn filled closed manifold can be simply obtained by gauging the IR PSU(N ) flavor symmetry 6 Handle-gluing operator for knot complement theory. Applying the general localization formula to the explicit field theoretic description of T N [S 3 \K; µ], it is straightforward to check that Here A, B are square matrices of size k 6 N (N 2 − 1) and f , f are vectors of size k 6 N (N 2 − 1). They are determined by the gluing rule of octahedra in the N -decomposition. In the field theory side, the matrices determine the mixed Chern-Simons levels among U(1) k N (N 2 −1) 6 gauge group and the vectors determine the mixed CS levels between the gauge group and the background u(1) R gauge field. In the above, we define Here {z i } are exponentiated complexified holonomy variables along gauge group. The determinant factor comes from the Hessian of the twisted 5 The theory T DGG N [S 3 \K; γ] depends on the choice of primitive boundary 1-cycle γ ∈ H1 ∂(S 3 \K), Z . For generic choice of γ, there is no symmetry enhancement. When γ is chosen such that χ irred (S 3 \K)γ, N is empty, the U(1) N −1 is enhanced to SU(N ) (or PSU(N )) if γ is a trivial (or a non-trivial) element in H1 S 3 \K, Z2 = Z2. For γ = µ (meridian) case, χ irred (S 3 \K)γ = S 3 , N is obviously empty since there is no irreducible flat connections on S 3 . Note also that µ is a generator of H1 S 3 \K, Z2 . 6 The Chern-Simons level for background gauge field coupled to the PSU(N ) symmetry of TN [S 3 \K, γ = µ] depends on the choice of dual bounday 1-cycle γ dual ∈ H1 ∂(S 3 \K), Z which intersects γ once. We choose the γ dual as longitude λ. In the gauging, we introduce additional CS interaction of level P in addition to the CS level determined by the choice of γ dual .

superpotential and remaining products come from the so-called effective dilaton. Bethe vacua are given as solutions of the following algebraic equations Bethe equations : Here {m a } N −1 a=1 are the background S 1 -holonomies copuled to U(1) N −1 flavor symmetry of the T N [S 3 \K; µ] theory. On the 3-manifold side, on the other hand, the {z i } parametrize the shape of octahedra in the N -decomposition. The above Bethe equations are actually identical to the gluing equations for the octahedra. For each solution to the gluing equations, there is a corresponding PSL(N, C) flat connection on S 3 \K whose holonomy along the boundary meridian cycle µ is given by The m a depends on the choice {E a } of psu(N ) Lie-algebra basis, such that E a log m a is kept invariant. Through the Bethe equations in (3.19), the first (N − 1) rows, say (A N −1 , B N −1 ), of the matrices (A, B) also depend on the choice. Under the basis change For the resulting 3d theory to have properly quantized mixed CS levels, the matrices should be integer valued. Upon the following choice of basis { E m }, the matrices become integer valued [72,78] In the construction of T N [S 3 \K, µ], for properly quantized CS levels, we need to use (A, B) matrices associated to the basis { E m }. This is the reason why the basis { E m } appears in the handle-gluing operator in (3.17). On the other hand, the torsion Tor S 3 \K (τ adj , N ; µ) can be computed using a state-integral model developed in [71,79] and the result is  Table 3. Summary of 3d-3d correspondence for knot complement S 3 \K.
The adjoint torsion on a knot complement, S 3 \K, also depends on the choice of primitive boundary cycle γ ∈ H 1 ∂(S 3 \K), Z [80]. We denote the torsion as Tor S 3 \K (τ adj , N ; γ) to specify the choice. The above torsion is identical to the handling gluing operator in (3.17) except the basis change, from E m to E l . The new basis is defined as follows: Two basis are related by a linear transformation determined by the Cartan matrix κ ab of su(N ): Two basis are conjugate to each other in the following sense To arrive at the 3d-3d dictionary in table 2 for handle gluing operator from (3.28), we only need to show that the way of handling gluing transforms under the gauging operation is equal to the transformation of torsion under the Dehn filling, see (3.16). Depending on whether g.c.d(P, N ) = 1 or not, the hand gluing operator transforms slightly differently under the gauging procedure. Here we only analyze for the simpler case, when g.c.d(P, N ) = 1, and will check that the two transformation rules are identical which prove the 3d-3d dictionary in table 2. On the 3-manifold side, the condition g.c.d(P, N ) = 1 is mapped into the following topological condition (3.29)

JHEP03(2020)164
This is the technical reason why we assume the topological condition for the simpler 3d-3d relation. It would be an interesting future work to generalize this analysis to derive the 3d-3d relation for general hyperbolic 3-manifold.
where {E l a } N −1 a=1 is a basis given in (3.24). In choosing the Bethe-vacua, we need to choose solutions of (3.34) which are not fixed points of the Weyl-action As a consistency check for the formula, consider a pure N = 2 PSU(N ) theory with a Chern-Simons level k > 0. It corresponds to W ν R = 1 2 = 0 and P = k in the formula: 8 , Note that the summation is over {m a } N −1 a=1 satisfying the above constraints modulo M ∼ e 2πin N M with n = 0, . . . , N − 1. Recall the definition of u i ( m) in (3.31). For the case when g.c.d(k, N ) = 1, the expression is actually equivalent to the following Verlinde formula [81]: In the expression, we take into account of the 1-loop CS level shift k N =0 + N = k N =2 comming from integrating out the auxiliary massive gaugino in the N = 2 vector multiplet.

On the 3-manifold side, S 0 (S 3 \K, M) is the classical Chern-Simons action for a flatconnection on S 3 \K with boundary PSL(N, C) holonomy M. According to a 3d-3d relation [28], the action is identical to the on-shell twisted superpotential:  we verify that The denominator in (3.40) comes from the effect of Dehn filling [80]: .

Consistency check: integrality of twisted indices
Generally, the partition function Z ν R p,g for p = 0 should be integer-valued since it counts the number of ground states of 3d SCFT on Σ g with signs. In the expression (3.10), the integrality of Z ν R = 1 2 p=0,g (T N [M 3 ]) is far from obvious. We check the integrality for several examples below, and naturally we conjecture it is always true. This is a curiosity, and the integral property of torsion has been already reported in the mathematical literature [83]. One crucial difference is that they consider torsions in the fundamental representation, while we consider here the adjoint representation.
Example of M 3 = (S 3 \4 1 ) 5µ+λ and N = 2: the corresponding 3d gauge theory was proposed in [47] = (N = 2 U(1) vector coupled to a chiral Φ of charge +1 with CS level k = −7/2) . (3.46) The Witten index for the theory is [84] |k| + 1/2 = 4 .  The handle gluing operator is [15,53] (3.50) Their numerical values are (3.51) 9 In this example, the 3d theory has an additional U(1)top flavor symmetry whose coserved charge counts monopole charge of the U(1) gauge field. Such an accidental bonus symmetry can appear in TN [M3] theory only for small N as argued in [48]. In this example, the IR superconformal R-symmetry U(1)R is a mixture of compact SO(2) R-symmetry originated from 6d SO(5) R-symmetry and the accidental U(1)top. The IR R-symmetry charge is not properly quantized, hence we can not use it for the topological twisting along Σg. In this example, we use the SO(2) symmetry for the topological twisting. The 3d-3d relation table 2 works for the twisted index using the SO(2) R-symmetry which is always identical to the IR superconformal R-symmetry for sufficiently large N .

Note that these are all integers! Using the explicit formulae in appendix A, one can compute

Full perturbative 1/N expansion of twisted partition functions
Combining the expression in (3.10) with a mathematical result on asymptotic properties of the analytic torsion, we determine the full perturbative 1/N corrections to the twisted partition functions. The final perturbative expression is given in (4.13) and (4.15). See [85] for previous studies on full perturbative 1/N corrections to the twisted index for different classes of 3d theories.  The flat connection A geom N =2 is actually identical to the flat connection ρ geom given in (3.5). The fibering operators for the Bethe-vacua are

Refer to [25] for the computation of Chern-Simons functionals for these two flat connections. Moreover, it is known that for arbitrary PSL(N, C) flat connection A α N other than the two special irreducible flat connections.
Large N expansion of |H geom | = |H geom |: the two flat-connections are simply related by complex conjugation and so are their analytic torsions According to [61,86], log |Tor The above expression at large m can be numerically checked up to o(m) terms for many examples of M 3 = (S 3 \4 1 ) P µ+Qλ using the explicit expression given in appendix A. Combining the branching rule (4.6) and the above mathematical result, we have the following large N expansion of the adjoint torsion log |Tor (4.9) Note that the last term is exponentially suppressed at large N . In the formulae above, [γ] runs over the nontrivial primitive conjugacy classes of π 1 (M 3 ). The PSL(2, C) flat connection A geom N =2 on M 3 gives a homomorphism ρ geom ρ geom ∈ Hom[π 1 (M 3 ) → PSL(2, C)] . (4.10) The complex length C of γ is defined by Tor This expression is valid for any closed hyperbolic 3-manifold M 3 with trivial H 1 (M, Z N ). We denote exponentially suppressed terms at large N terms by e −(...) as above. Note that the leading term nicely reproduces the gravity free energy (2.17) for AdS-Taub-Bolt + solution. Two remarkable properties of the above asymptotic expansion are worth highlighting: 1. The perturbative expanson in 1/N terminates at finite order o(N 0 ).

For p = 0 and g > 1
For p = 0 and g > 1 case, we expect that only two irreducible flat-connections, A geom N and A geom N , equally give the most dominant contributions to the twisted index at large N : = N g−1 (Tor

JHEP03(2020)164
From (4.5) and (4.9), we obtain the following simple large N asymptotic expansion Again, this expression is valid for any closed hyperbolic 3-manifold M 3 with trivial H 1 (M, Z N ). Note that the leading term nicely reproduce the gravity free-energy (2.17) for AdS-Taub-Bolt solution when p = 0 or equivalently the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy (4.9) for magnetically charged AdS blackhole [27]. Two remarkable properties of the above asymptotic expansion are worth singling out: 1. Modulo an overall factor 2 cos (1 − g)θ N , the 1/N expanson terminates at o(N 0 ).

Logarithmic correction to the log
The logarithmic correct will be reproduced from a supergravity analysis.

Logarithmic corrections from supergravity
The Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of any black hole is proportional to the area of its event horizon. This term, however universal, should be viewed as the leading contribution in a quantum expansion. Studying corrections to the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy is, therefore, crucial for a quantum understanding of black holes and for clarifying the microscopic degrees of freedom responsible for the macroscopic entropy. Within all the corrections that might be present, logarithmic corrections are particularly central because they are determined by the massless degrees of freedom of the gravitational theory and are fairly independent of the details of its ultraviolet completion. In the context of asymptotically flat black holes the computations of logarithmic corrections to the black hole entropy have convincingly provided an infrared window into ultraviolet physics; in every case the supergravity (IR) results have perfectly matched the string theory prediction (see, for example, [87][88][89][90][91] and references therein). Given the recent advances in our understanding of the microscopic description of certain asymptotically AdS black hole entropy via field theory localization, it is of paramount importance that we extend those remarkable results for asymptotically flat black holes to the context of asymptotically AdS black holes. Doing so will advance the inherent promise of the AdS/CFT correspondence of providing a nonperturbative path to quantum gravity in asymptotically AdS spacetimes. Indeed, for a class of black holes some progress has been reported in [23] after preliminary explorations in [22,92].
Let us also point out that everything we stated about black holes above applies to other supergravity backgrounds where we consider instead of the entropy the on-shell action and JHEP03(2020)164 one-loop quantum corrections around the solution. Indeed, an early application matched the logarithmic in N term in the free energy of a large class of 3d Chern-Simons matter theory with the one-loop eleven dimensional supergravity computation [93]. Similarly, the computations we perform apply not only to the extremal, magnetically charged asymptotically AdS 4 black hole reviewed in section 2 but also to the Taub-Bolt-AdS 4 solution when embedded in eleven dimensional supergravity. We have already matched the leading part of the on-shell action in section 2 (see also [27]) and in what follows we will match the coefficient of the logarithmic in N term as computed from the one-loop effective action to the microscopic answer following from the appropriate partition function computed in section 4.
Given the wide range of diverse topics covered in this manuscript we provide a brief review of the main arguments involved in computations of logarithmic corrections to black hole entropy in the context of 11d supergravity, we refer the reader to some relevant work including [22,23,92,93] for more details.
In this section we first make a general comment about the nature of logarithmic terms in one-loop effective actions. We highlight that in odd dimensional spaces only zero modes and boundary terms can contribute to the logarithmic expression. We make the assumption that the whole contribution to the one-loop effective action comes from the asymptotic AdS 4 region as was the case in [93] for the AdS 4 solution and in [23] for the magnetically charged asymptotically AdS 4 black hole case. This assumption will turn out a posteriori to lead to the answer which agrees with the field theory expectation. It does, however, deviates from the standard paradigm where logarithmic corrections are computed using exclusively the near horizon geometry; we believe that this is a feature of asymptotically AdS black holes that deserves further scrutiny.

Robustness of logarithmic terms in one-loop effective actions
To construct the one-loop effective action we integrate, in the path integral, the quadratic fluctuations around the black hole supergravity background. This process leads to the computation of determinants of the corresponding operators. For a given kinetic operator O one naturally defines the logarithm of its determinant as where prime denotes that the sum is over non-vanishing eigenvalues, κ n , of O. It is convenient to define the heat Kernel of the operator O formally as As emphasized already more than three decades ago in an exquisitely pedagogical manner by Duff and Toms in [94], the heat kernel contains information on both the nonzero modes as well as the zero modes. There is a very clear prescription widely utilized by Sen and collaborators (see for example, [89][90][91]), which we now review, on how to subtract the zero mode contribution in the heat kernel.

JHEP03(2020)164
Let n 0 O be the number of zero modes of the operator O. We can write, where is a UV cutoff. At small τ , we can employ the Seeley-De Witt expansion for the heat kernel which leads to Since non-zero eigenvalues of a standard Laplace-like operator O scale as L −2 , it is natural to redefineτ = τ /L 2 . The expression for the determinant of the operator O can be rewritten as From the above expression it is clear that the logarithmic contribution to ln det A comes only from the term n = d/2, On very general grounds of diffeomorphic invariance, it can be argued that in odddimensional spacetimes, the coefficient a d/2 vanishes [95]. Therefore, the only contribution to the heat kernel comes from the zero modes in the form n 0 O above. Applied to our case, the one-loop contribution due to 11d supergravity comes from the analysis of zero modes.
The one-loop partition function can then be written schematically as where D stands for kinetic operators corresponding to various fluctuating fields and (−1) D = −1 for bosons and 1 for fermions. The prime indicates removal of the zero modes, which are accounted for separately by where exp(− d d x √ gφDφ) = 1. The structure of the logarithmic term is then given by where the ghost contributions are treated separately, as in [23,93], and β D is due to the integration over zero modes, eq. (5.8), in the path integral, as studied in various cases of logarithmic contributions to the black hole entropy and the one-loop partition function [87][88][89]93].

JHEP03(2020)164
It is worth noting that the coefficient of the logarithmic in L term is independent of the UV cutoff, , and, therefore, independent of the UV details of the theory -this fact attest to the robustness of the logarithmic corrections to the black hole entropy. Whenever a microscopic UV theory, which in our case are supersymmetric field theories, presents us with a prediction for the logarithmic coefficient, we can test if our macroscopic long distance gravity theory generates the same contribution.
These properties have, in fact, been already exploited in the context of the logarithmic corrections to BMPV black holes in [90] whose logarithmic contributions come from an effective five-dimensional supergravity theory. Analogously, the authors of [93] successfully matched the logarithmic term in the large N expansion of the ABJM free energy on S 3 with a gravity computation performed in 11d supergravity which essentially reduced to the contribution of a two-form zero mode. More recently, a similar approach applied to the magnetically charged asymptotically AdS 4 black holes dual to the topologically twisted ABJM theory lead to perfect agreement with the field theory [23].

Zero-mode contributions
As explained in the previous section, the computation of the one-loop effective action in odd-dimensional spacetimes reduces to a careful treatment of the zero modes of the relevant operators. When integrating over zero modes for a kinetic operatore D, there is a factor of L ±β D for each zero mode. The total contribution to the partition function from the zero modes is In what follows we will discuss the coefficients β D and n 0 D closely following arguments already present in the literature. In particular, we are going to be most concerned with the effective theory on AdS 4 where a complete control of the various zero modes has been achieved [90,96]. The zero modes we deal with in asymptotically AdS spacetimes originate in modes that would have been pure gauge were it not for the fact that the gauge parameters are not normalizable. It is interesting to note that the mathematical literature has its idiosyncratic and completely equivalent approach by way of L 2 cohomology [97,98]. We are going to closely follow the presentation of [90] .
Typically, zero modes are associated with certain asymptotic symmetries. For example, with gauge transformations that do not vanish at infinity. The key idea in determining β D above in equation (5.10) is to find the right variables of integration and to count the powers of L that such integration measure contributes when one starts from fields that would naturally be present in the action.
For example, let A µ be a vector field in d-dimensional spacetime and g µν be the background metric which we assume can be written as L 2 g µν is independent of L. The path integral over A µ is normalized such that i.e.

JHEP03(2020)164
Then, the correctly normalized integration measure will be x,(µ) Gauge fields zero modes are associated with deformations produced by the gauge transformation with non-normalizable parameters δA µ ∝ ∂ µ Λ(x). Therefore, when integrating over vector zero modes one has (5.14) Similarly we arrive to analogous expressions for various fields. For example, the expression for gravitons, gravitinos, and p-form fields has been discussed in [90]. Everything we need has been spelled out clearly in Sen's copious bibliography on the subject. In particular, we make heavy use of section 2 of [90]. Here, we will only need the expression for a 3-form potential as pertains to 11d supergravity. To compute β C 3 we assume similar scaling as before and obtain For ease of visualization of the structure of the one-loop effective action, it is helpful to consider the dimensional reduction from the 11d supergravity fields to AdS 4 ; we emphasize that the actual computation takes place in 11d and this is just a convenient book-keeping device. For the metric fluctuations we essentially have G M N = {h µν , h µn , h mn }, where the Greeek indices µ, ν are indices on AdS 4 , the Latin indices m, n, denote directions in sevendimensional manifold. The dimensional reduction of the metric leads to: one graviton in AdS 4 , seven vector fields and a number of scalars. The other field of 11d supergravity is the 3-form potential C 3 . Recall that the general action for quantizing a p-form A p requires p generalized ghosts [99,100]. The gist of the argument, as succinctly explained in [99], is that when quantizing a p-form, A p , one attempts to fix the invariance A p = dΛ p−1 . However, the ghost arising by fixing a gauge, acquires a gauge transformation since it is itself invariant under Λ p−1 that are themselves exact. The prescription is cleverly summarized as -ghosts themselves have ghosts [99].
The combined action for the p-form and its ghosts is given by [100]: where the standard scalar product of forms is denoted by (·, ·) and ∆ p−j is the Hodge Laplacian. The (p − j)-forms A p−j is treated as a commuting field if j is even and as an anticommuting field if j is odd. The contribution to the one-loop effective action is thus where prime indicates removing of the zero modes.
Since we are computing the one-loop effective action in an odd-dimensional spacetime we know that the contribution to the logarithmic term can only come from the zero JHEP03(2020)164 modes. Recall that in AdS 2M there is only a M -form zero mode [101]; we are thus interested in tracking the contribution of the 2-form zero mode present in asymptotically AdS 4 backgrounds.
The zero mode contribution, in turn, can only come from 2-form A p−j=2 which corresponds for p = 3 to j = 1 and leads to the following one-loop contribution Given the backgrounds, the 3-form potential of 11d supergravity can be decomposed as C M N P = {C µνρ , C µνp , C µnp , C mnp }, where Greek indices are legs on the asymptotic AdS 4 space and Latin indices are legs on Y 7 . Then a 2-form zero mode on the AdS 4 part can contribute if there is a 1-form zero mode on Y 7 . We will assume for now that such a one-form zero mode does not exist, that is, b 1 (Y 7 ) = 0 and proceed; this limitation is in accordance with the field theory conditions we have encountered. We will return to the slightly more general case toward the end of the section.
One might wonder if there are contributions arising form the quantization of the graviton. This problems has been explicitly addressed in, for example, [102] and, given the gauge invariance, requires the introduction of ghosts fields. In particular, there is a vector ghost, see equation (3.10) in [102]. However, the form of the operator in this case is V * M (−g M N − R M N )V N which does not admit zero modes due to background Einstein space we discuss: R M N ∝ G M N .

The one-loop effective action and logarithmic correction
The most important ingredient in formulating the answer for the one-loop effective action is thus the number of two-form zero modes. Although our background is intrinsically elevendimensional, we can exploit the four dimensional point of view described in section 2. Let us consider, for example the black holes that the action (2.5) admits.
As can be see from equation (2.19), the black hole we are interested in is an extremal one. It is known that for matters of thermodynamics, it is best to approach the computation of the effective action of the extremal solution through the computation in the non-extremal branch and then taking the limit to extremality. This prescription has been discussed in detail in the context of the quantum entropy function [103] and used more recently in a context similar to the one we consider here [23]. The generic form of the non-extremal magnetically charged asymptotically AdS 4 black hole with arbitrary genus g horizon topology takes the form In principle the functions f (r), g(r) and h(r) will depend on the charges. Let us denote the number of 2-form zero modes of these solution by n 0 2 . As explained in [23], n 0 2 is the result of a regularized object and can be best understood as the properly defined in L 2 Euler characteristic. An interesting application of such regularized Euler characteristic was explicitly presented in [104] to elucidate aspects of quantum inequivalence JHEP03(2020)164 in N = 8 gauged supergravity in four dimensions. The number of 2-form zero is n 0 2 = 2(1 − g). (5.20) It is important that this value is independent of the particular charges of the black hole. Therefore, as long as we approach the extremal solution through this branch we obtain the same result as for the non-extremal solution. Similarly, our computation applies for the one-loop quantum effective action of the Taub-Bolt-AdS 4 solution discussed in section 2 as it admits the same embedding in eleven dimensional supergravity and has the same number of 2-form zero modes.
The full contribution to the logarithmic terms of the one-loop effective action is thus given only by the 2-form zero modes and we have: where according to the structure of the M5 brane solution we have L 3 ∼ N (see table 1). This result perfectly matches the field theory expectation and constitutes one of the main results of the manuscript. Let us further discuss this result and understand its potential generalizations. In articular, we need to be aware of potential contributions coming from the fact that we are truly working in an eleven dimensional setup.
Given that the only zero mode in AdS 4 is a 2-form and assuming that the solution is roughly of the form of warped products of AdS 4 × M 3 ×S 4 we need to decompose the kinetic operator along these three subspaces. For the 2-form zero mode of AdS 4 to survive we need to have the corresponding part of the kinetic Laplace-like operator also vanishing. The number of zero modes depends on the topology of the full space.
Let us now address the crucial role of the compactness of M 3 . Given that M 3 is locally H 3 , one might assume naively that M 3 = H 3 . This would imply that the 2-form zero mode in AdS 4 is lifted because there are no zero modes on H 3 . Given that H 3 is simply connected the De Rham intuition indicates that there might be a zero mode. However, for a non-compact space, and in the context of L 2 cohomology, a constant function is not L 2 -normalizable and does not contribute. 10 This would imply that there are no zero modes in the full solution and, therefore, no contribution to the logarithmic term. This gravity intuition might inform attempts to wrap M5 branes on non-compact hyperbolic spaces, we do not pursue this direction in this manuscript. Let us return to M 3 compact and admitting a one-form zero mode. We have assumed that M 3 is compact and connected, that is, b 0 (M 3 ) = 1; similarly we have assume thatS 4 is topologically a 4-sphere and therefore b 0 (S 4 ) = 1 and b 4 (S 4 ) = 1 with all other Betti numbers forS 4 vanishing. Depending on the topology of M 3 there could also be other contributions to the coefficient of the logarithmic in N term. For example, if M 3 admits one-form zero modes we could construct a 3-form zero mode which is the wedge product of the 2-form zero mode on AdS 4 and the one-form on M 3 . This will contribute through the C 3 integration. Let us explicitly compute such contribution. Recall that the expression for 10 We thank Wenli Zhao for various clarifications on L 2 cohomology.

JHEP03(2020)164
β C 3 given in equation (5.15) leads to β C 3 = 5/2 in d = 11 dimensions. The contribution to the one-loop effective action following from the master equation (5.7) is: where in the last equality we have again translated from L 3 ∼ N according to table 1.
For completeness we note that the one-form zero mode on M 3 can not contribute through the one-form ghost determinants because there are no normalizable 0-form in the asymptotically AdS 4 region. Similarly the 3-form zero mode on M 3 can not contribute through the C 3 integration.
The most general expression that we have is, therefore: It would be interesting to relax the b 1 (M 3 ) = 0 condition on the field theory side and compare with this gravity prediction for the logarithmic in N term. Alternatively, this expression can be used as an IR consistency check for would-be UV expressions.

Conclusions
In this manuscript we have considered partition functions of 3d field theories denoted by T N [M 3 ] which are obtained as the low energy limit of N M5 branes wrapping a hyperbolic 3-manifold, M 3 . By exploiting the connection of the T N [M 3 ] theory with PSL(N, C) Chern-Simons theory on M 3 we were able to produce expressions for the partition functions in the large N limit including perturbative corrections to all orders in 1/N . This is an important achievement, especially in comparison with the state of the art of generic computations of the topologically twisted indices of other 3d field theories arising as the worldvolume theories of D2 or M2 branes. In those cases the field theory supersymmetric observables are only obtained at leading order in N [20,21] or, with some numerical effort, at sub-leading order [22,24].
One important sub-leading result obtained in the manuscript is a logarithmic in N term on the field theory side. On the dual gravity side, the coefficient of the logarithmic in N term is an IR window into the UV physics as eloquently stated by Sen [89]. In our case the UV physics of the gravity theory is provided by the field theory. Exploiting the connection with Chern-Simons and results in the mathematical literature, we now have an analytic result for the coefficient of the log N contribution. This is a substantial improvement with respect to previous results in the literature of partition functions for generic N = 2 supersymmetric field theories in 3d. We have also computed the coefficient of the logarithmic in N corrections using exclusively the massless degrees of freedom of the dual eleven dimensional supergravity describing the stack of M5 branes and found precise JHEP03(2020)164 agreement with the field theory result. Using these IR data we have a perfect match with the UV answer coming from the field theoretic analysis. We have also demonstrated that the result is rather universal in the sense that it depends on a few topological aspects of the hyperbolic 3-manifold, M 3 . We have pointed out that improvements on the field theory and gravity sides are possible. It would be interesting to better understand the field theory for arbitrary homology of the 3-manifold M 3 . In particular, there is a gravity prediction for hyperbolic 3-manifolds of an arbitrary first Betti number b 1 . The gravity side of the computation is easily extendable to more general cases and we expect more stringent tests to take place in the future.
Given the nature of the field theory answer, it would be quite interesting to understand other terms in the 1/N expansion from the gravitational point of view. In particular, it would be quite interesting to provide a Wald entropy interpretation for various terms in the expansion of the topologically twisted index, see [105,106] for recent developments in understanding the quantum entropy function from AdS gravity side.
Recall that in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence the field theory provides the exact answer via the index to the gravity question of quantum entropy. Through AdS/CFT this amounts to having the UV complete answer to the question of microstates counting on the gravity side. Understanding the structure of the indices in 3d supersymmetric field theory more broadly thus corresponds to uncovering the precise structure of the underlying string theory. Let us elaborate on this possibility of high precision holography where the field theory is providing the analog of the full string theory partition function as was the case in [107]. One ultimate goal of the program we pursue here is to achieve a full understanding of the asymptotic form of the partition function; similar to certain dyonic states in string theory [108,109] where it was demonstrated that the quantum corrected macroscopic entropy agrees precisely with the microscopic counting for an infinite tower of fundamental string states to all orders in an asymptotic expansion. In our case we were aided by the relation to Chern-Simons theory for which there are many results in the mathematical literature which we can re-direct to our purpose. It would be interesting to pursue this program for more general N = 2 superconformal field theories.
The non-trivial issue of integrality which was crucial in previous approaches has been addressed here with explicit examples. We hope to understand this aspect in a more general and formal manner, although the evidence for it is convincing enough. The number of states (quantum entropy) log d(Q i , P i ) should be related to an integer number of states. In the derivation of the 3d-3d relation in table 2, we use a field theoretic construction of the 3d field theory T N [M 3 ]. It would be interesting to derive the relation directly from the 6d definition of the T N [M 3 ] as done in [36][37][38] for other supersymmetric partition functions. We leave some of these questions for future research. In this appendix we give an explicit expression for the analytic torsion T α M 3 (τ 2n+1 , N = 2) for 3-maniofolds M 3 = (S 3 \4 1 ) P µ+Qλ obtained from Dehn surgeries along a 'figure-eight' knot (4 1 ). Refer to, for example, to [71,80,110] for recent mathematical developments on the topic.

Closed 3-manifold from surgery along a knot K: one systematic way of constructing closed 3-manifolds is using Dehn surgery along a knot K in 3-sphere S 3 . The Dehn surgery can be done in two steps, drilling and filling. First, we remove a tubular neighborhood of the knot K and create a 3-manifold S 3 \K called knot complement: Drilling : S 3 \K := S 3 − (Tubular neighborhood of a knot K) . (A.1) The 3-manifold has a single torus boundary, which corresponds to the boundary of removed tubular neighborhood of the knot.
There is a canonical basis of boundary 1-cycles called meridian (µ) and longitude (λ). µ is the generator of H 1 (S 3 \K, Z) while λ is a trivial element in the homology.
As the last step, we glue back to the removed solid-torus in a way that the boundary cycle pµ + qλ is glued to the shrinking cycle of the solid-torus. The procedure is called Dehn filling and the resulting closed 3-manifold will be denoted as (S 3 \K) P µ+Qλ : There is an isomorphism between π 1 ∂(S 3 \4 1 ) and H 1 ∂(S 3 \4 1 ), Z : The fundamental group of a closed 3-manifold M 3 = (S 3 \4 1 ) P µ+Qλ (P, Q are co-prime integers) is The closed manifold is always hyperbolic except for the following 10 choices of (P, Q)'s, which are called exceptional slopes χ irred (N = 2, M 3 ) from solving gluing equations: the figure-eight knot complement can be triangulated using two ideal tetrahedra [64]. The gluing equations for the ideal triangulation are followings [71] JHEP03(2020)164 In the above,  can be computed from Fox differential calculus on its fundamental group. For example, the torsion Tor (α) S 3 \4 1 [τ 2n+1 , N ; λ] can be given as [110]. ∆(τ 2n+1 ; ρ α ) = det I 2n+1 − t −1 A n B −1 n A −1 n + A n B −1 n A −1 n B n − tB n + B n A n B −1 n A −1 n det(tI 2n+1 − B n ) , A n := τ 2n+1 (ρ α (a)) , B n := τ 2n+1 (ρ α (b)) , Then, the torsion with respect to the general primitive boundary 1-cycle, P µ + Qλ, is given by the following transformation rule [80] Tor
