A survey of $q$-holonomic functions
We give a survey of basic facts of $q$-holonomic functions of one or several variables, following Zeilberger and Sabbah. We provide detailed proofs and examples.

Gevrey series in quantum topology
Our aim is to prove that two formal power series of importance to quantum topology are Gevrey. These series are the Kashaev invariant of a knot (reformulated by Huynh and the second author) and the Gromov norm of the LMO of an integral homology 3-sphere. It follows that the power series associated to a simple Lie algebra and a homology sphere is Gevrey. Contrary to the case of analysis, our formal power series are not solutions to differential equations with polynomial coefficients. The first author has conjectured (and in some cases proved, in joint work with Costin) that our formal power series have resurgent Borel transform, with geometrically interesting set of singularities.

Problems on invariants of knots and 3-manifolds
This is a list of open problems on invariants of knots and 3-manifolds with expositions of their history, background, significance, or importance. This list was made by editing open problems given in problem sessions in the workshop and seminars on `Invariants of Knots and 3-Manifolds' held at Kyoto in 2001.
