Abstract: We will discuss a connection between 3 subjects:
1. perturbation theory of complex Chern-Simons theory in 3-dimensions.
2. admissible series and Nahm sums of Kontsevich-Soibelman.
3. q-de Rham cohomology and integral p-adic Hodge theory.
The common thread between them are line bundles over the Habiro ring of a number field F indexed by the third algebraic K-theory group K_3(F) of F. Joint work with Peter Scholze, Campbell Wheeler and Don Zagier.
