DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Stavros Garoufalidis\nhosted by Laszlo Erdös\nAbstrac
 t: State integrals (and their building block\, the quantum dilogarithm) ex
 press the partition function of complex Chern-Simons theory of triangulate
 d 3-manifolds with boundary. I will give an introduction to the subject\, 
 focusing on examples\, as well as recent results on expressing state integ
 rals in terms of Neumann-Zagier data and in terms of q-series of Nahm type
 . This is work joint in parts with R. Kashaev and D. Zagier.
